Sleeved On Jul 16Th



Recommended Posts

I had my sleeve done on July 16th. Went well except I had sever nausea and had to be re-admitted to the hospital for another day to re-hydrate. I am able to drink Clear Liquids now and I will start my pureed foods tomorrow. I have lost 19 pounds since my two week post op liquid diet and am very happy. I still have a very bloated feeling in my stomach which feels like a lot of gas and popping. Anyone else feel like this the first week out?

I had the same feelings.. I'm still have a little bloat but not much and I am 13 days postop.. I did have to have an open operation instead of laparoscopic so that has caused me to heal much slower

I haven't been sleeved yet, but it sounds like you're doing better =) I'm glad to hear things are going ok, despite the gassy feeling. I know I've read a lot of places that the gas is a problem. I hope it gets better soon!

I was sleeved on the 17th. The gassy feeling for me was the worst part! I lucked out and didn't have the nausea more than once but the gas was so painful! Hang in there and walk as much as possible it really helps. I also laid on my left side using pillows for comfort. That helped move the gas a bit. Today is the first day I feel a lot better and basically completely gas free. Good luck and I hope you feel better!

      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!
