I will be heading to the hospital in two hours for surgery at 10am......tossed and turned all night and even had to cry myself to sleep. So nervous and scared at the same time... Sending prayers your way! We can do this!

Sleeved - the throwing up hurts like crap. The nurses mentioned nothing about walking - I asked them but still waiting.

Hang in there, Ms.Cali!!! Don't be too proud to ask for pain meds and anti-nausea meds!!! Use the nurses to your advantage! Walk, walk, walk!!!!! It does get better, I promise!!! Good luck!!!

Congratulations new sleevers!!! I'm happy you all are doing well!!!

Thank you mezzane!

I think that's my problem - I have to push the nurse button 6 times before one of them show up an hour and half later.

      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!
