I mainly lurk on these forums. I have gained so much knowledge from you all. I just wanted to share with you all that I have a date for my sleeve!!

I go in on Feb 26th. I have the endoscopy the day before surgery.

I am soo weird... I was more scared to be put under anesthesia for my ankle surgery than I am now and having most of my stomach removed!! I know the nerves will come but right now I'm just excited!!!

Congratulations! You're going to be sleeved on my birthday, haha. My surgeon is Dr. Stowers too. I just had my phone consultation with him yesterday. He seems great. Definitely keep us updated on how it goes!

Dr Stowers is awesome. I had my EGD this morning and it was a piece of cake. The hospital staff I have interacted with are soo nice. Some of the hospital staff have had their WLS done by Dr. Stowers. I'm going in tomorrow at 7:30 for the sleeve!!!!

      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!
