Being followed by local news station for a year



Recommended Posts

Hey Vertical Sleeve Talk world - I have had my 1st segment air on the local news station here in TX. They will be following me for a year - I was honest and put myself out there in hopes I could help some people decide their plan of action on their health! They even got permission to go into the operating room. Anyhow if any of you are interested her is the link and make sure to watch both parts. www.newschannel6now.com click on News tab and go down almost to bottom and look for "Walk with Irene".........I was sleeved on 7.17 - enjoy!

You are very brave! Congratulations on your project and the education you will be giving to others that do not know about the sleeve as an option is priceless. :D :D :D

I don't see it.

You can search the site for A Walk with Irene and it will pull it up for you. I couldn't find it just by looking either.

      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!
