Recommended Posts

Help, im booked in for my sleeve on the 7th. I have been loosing quite well but im worried that if i keep going at this rate i will drop below the 40.0BMI and that i wont be allowed my surgery.

Has this happened to anyone?

Once your approved it can not be retracted. Your insurance approved you based on the collective information from all your evaluations. Are you on a liquid diet? If so, that is probably the cause for all the weight lost. If you were to go back to your everyday life could you continue to drop the weight? Probably or maybe not. You are ahead of the weight loss success, you will just have less to loss on the other side. Keep up the GREAT WORK!

*my surgery is scheduled for 12/5/13 : )

I am paying for the procedure myself, thats why im so worried.

I am not on a liquid diet, its low sugar, low carb and low fat. - im starving all the time! i have managed to loose quite a bit several times before, but it always finds me again and brings an extra few stone with it. humph. Thats why i want the surgery, to keep it off.

      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!
