I am from Jefferson City and was sleeved on 4/11 in Columbia. I am tolerating food very well and have lost about 70# since Sept with 20 of that since surgery.

Definitely not. I'm still in too much pain to sit up in a chair for to long because of the location of my main incision. I have been waking up with an upset stomach everyday and by the time I get moving an take a shower I'm ready for some Tylenol from being so sore and laying down to rest. I'm giving it another week and I'm going to focus on healing that incision because I'm so ready to go back to work this being laid up crap isn't fun.

Hi everyone-I am new to the site. I am a patient of Dr. Minkin's, hopefully having my surgery done in September. I am halfway thru my 3 months of Dr. supervised weight loss. I have met with the surgeon. He seems great. Anybody else here have Minkin?

Hi, I'm from STL and having my sleeve with Dr Snow on nov 19. I was originally ached for Aug but decided to delay it because I am going on a 2 wk cruise and did not want to worry about complications away from home. So how are you doing now with the sleeve? I too have been torn between having band and sleeve. But I have done a lot of reading in FB groups and am leading towards the sleeve. Why did u decide to choose sleeve?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
