Yeah!!! Doing awesome, it's the best thing I've ever done for myself. I've had zero problems. I've lost 38 lbs so far, and went from XL clothes to Mediums :)

That is awesome! My goal is to wear a medium/large. Right now I am in 2xl but that should start to change soon. Do you find you can eat about anything? How do you feel when you are full enough? I don't want to over eat. Sorry for all the questions! !

I can eat anything just small amounts. I have never eaten fried foods, rice, or Pasta though. I just have no interest in carbs ( that's what made me fat haha ). Honestly, I was pretty hungry after surgery until I got to week 3. Once you get to soft foods the restriction starts to kick in. I've never gotten sick. The sleeve just tells me when to stop and I don't push beyond that. Who's doing your surgery ? Dr Weiss did mine and he's wonderful, it was really easy. The only complaint I had was fatigue for 2 weeks after surgery but after that I've felt great :)

      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!
