I was sleeved June 18, 2012, my pre op weight was 334.9 and my current weight is 199, that's 135.9 lbs lost! My daughter watched me lose and got so depressed that I was truly worried about her, her insurance would not pay for the surgery, she fought them for a year and finally last November she was sleeved, her insurance does not pay for any weight loss surgery so after a year long fight a with help from our great family Dr, her insurance is using her case as a guinea pig to see if it will be worth paying for this surgery for others! She is doing great, she's down 70 lbs! Here are our before and after photos (she's not done)

Thanks Cherbear33, it has been an amazing journey and I'm so glad that I finally got to watch my daughter go through all of the emotions that come with the weight just falling off! We are both way happier and healthier than we have been in a long time!

      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!
