Lorie 77 are you from Pittsburgh by chance?

Yes I am...well, West Mifflin actually. I had my VSG surgery in July 2013 at Magee in Oakland. Glad to see another Yinzer (lol) around here.

Philly here. Was sleeved on 11/12/13 by Dr Ramachandra at Mercy Fitzgerald. Down 30 lbs so far and starting to feel like myself again.

I was also sleeved on 11/12/13 and am down 25 pounds. My weight loss has kind of stalled right now and I am a little frustrated. I feel like I am not doing something right. I also get very hungry
I was sleeved in April 13 & I feel the same way! I fell on ice and broke my back, and since I've been stuck home I find myself grazing. And I'm not cleared for exercise yet! Aaaaargh!

      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!
