I'm from Yakima too. Sleeved June 6, 2013, with Dr. Billing at Puget Sound Bariatrics in Edmonds. Wonderful experience!

Welcome... I was sleeved with Dr. Billing Oct 15, 2012 @ PSSC. Loved it, just recently had an appointment and was able to see Dr. Billing, he was amazed at my progress - so that felt great. I couldn't ask for a better place to have such a life changing surgery at.

In Lake Stevens, pretty new to the sleeve- sleeved July 2nd 2013. I'm living with a sleeve vet though- Fiddleman is my husband! We should definitely have a get together...a sleeve friendly potluck maybe, next month? Our house is open and I love to have parties!

I have been lame about organizing something. I would like to get together for a little walk or bikeride, but about the time I get ready to that, my work schedule got all unpredictable on me! I would still like to do that though!

Anyway, I would definately join in a potluck or something too - would love to meet some fellow sleevers!

      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!
