Aiming For Early Dec '12



Recommended Posts

Hi all! :)

I've been doing the "prep" stuff since January & think I've finally settled my brain into a Dec 2012 date. My surgeon has said that basically once the psych & GI were done, I could get in whenever I was ready. I was originally aiming for 2nd week of Oct (just realized that's *this* week haha) but wasn't emotionally ready. I'm glad to have found this site. Been flip-flopping since the beginning about VSG vs RNY, even though I wanted VSG initially.

Hi Mwrarr,

I am also aiming for December 2012. I've almost finished my paperwork. Waiting on one more report to be sent to the 'committee'. I just joined this site last night. So glad I found it. Yael :)

I'm so glad I found this site, too! It's so addicting though. Haha but I must say, in a mere less-than-24 hrs...I have gone from "maybe I will put this thing off until next spring" to "yep, I'm ready; let's do this!" lol

I feel like one day I just decided to get the surgery... It was like oh I think I will get Lap Band... Then I scheduled the consult with my Suregon and he went over all the procedures and I settled on the sleeve... I am getting it done on 12/12/12

      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.

      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!
