I was sleeved on 6/24 as well and down 49 lbs. Sounds like we 3 are in the same boat! Cheers to us! I'm at 237 as of yesterday. I still have energy issues & it sucks to eat. I do Protein shakes for Breakfast and a Quest bar for lunch a modified dinner with hubby & son.

Are you taking B 12 shots? Once I started taking those me energy level has skyrocketed

Did you notice the B12 Energy wearing off after a while? I'm back to napping again. I'm taking 2500mcg sublinginal (sp). & have not much energy. :(

I was Also sleeved 6/24 I can relate to no energy I feel so tired and sluggish by 12 ! I work 10 hr days and it's hard getting through the day even increasing my Vitamins ???? I'm down 60 lbs. I'm 170 super happy but it's a challenge everyday to move around in the afternoon any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Hoping for energy !

      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!
