Count me in. I'm a new sleever, 1 week out, and first time challenger. I have no idea how I'll loose with the sleeve, so I'll set a somewhat ambitious goal and work my tail off to get there. :)

So close to goal too! I know the working out will slow my loss down more than it already is - usually lose 4-6 lbs a month at this point.

You are teeny! I know 5 lbs will be a true challenge. Good luck to you!

I had already set a Labor Day goal for my weight and I'm thrilled to participate! I am at 247 and would like to be 216. I'm only a week post op so I'm not sure how the weight loss will be but I'm setting the goal and will reevaluate if needed. If I can meet it, it will be a huge victory for me as I haven't seen that weight since September 2006. I also want to exercise 4X a week for at least 30 minutes, drink a minimum of 64 oz of Water daily, and consume 45 grams of Protein daily.

      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?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
