67, sleeved and home early!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved Tuesday, early am and home Weds. evening. I was able to take in and keep all the required liquids and Protein. I have some spasming of the tummy with bubbly gas and incision tenderness and that's it! I am in shock! I figured that at my age (with predicted slow and difficult recovery) I would be in the hospital longer. This was the easiest surgery I have ever had. Now my weight loss begins.,with a great big :-D

Congratulations, wishing you speedy recovery! I am on the full liquid stage. It is not bad at all. I didn't realize how many different cream Soups there are.

What cream Soups are you eating? I have Healthwise from my surgeon and Unjury chicken Soup. Unjury is by far the best. I'm on full liquids for 2 weeks now...then on to purees and softs. But with no hunger, it's not that hard now :-)

      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!
