Panniculectomy in 2 weeks.



Recommended Posts

That tape is making a difference. Thanks to CBT again for the info.

Today's NSV: I painted my toe nails!! When I was obese, I could reach then but my pannus made doing my own pedicures a chore.

When I lost the weight, reaching my toes comfortably was difficult.. I could reach them but the pannus was in the way.

Today I painted my toenails without lifting my stomach up. Without reaching around. I feel whole again

My VSG was 08/12. My PS was 03/14 So I was 19 months out. I made goal weight at 10 months out and hadn't lost any significant weight since 13 months out in 09/13

Thinking about taking diet pills because I'm not losing weight like I should

You might find an endocrinologist that specializes in WLS patients. Mine was pretty darn helpful.

      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!
