Anyone else scared bleepless...or is it just me?

Thank you, @Urbanlamb. I am pleased to be your sleeve twin. :)

Same goes for the rest of you August 18 twins: @@CrystalJae @@Amarie812 @@kgunchic @@CaroJoy @New_nana @@billw0917 @Imscls and @lindseyzzzme.

That's 92 people in August -- so far. That's a lot of lives that will be changed.

It is beginning to hit me what courage it takes for each of us to take this step.

Yay! It's good to have people in the same stage as I am. Happy to share with you all

I don't even have anything other than a tentative date yet and I'm scared. This is a big step but I know it's the right one for me.

I was fine until my insurance approved and I got the date lol. Now I'm a bag of extremely mixed emotions. I guess it also didn't help that I watched a video of the surgery online.

Urbanlamb, I'd worry about anyone who was carefree about this surgery.

It's a big damn deal for me.

Getting it on the calendar makes it REAL.

      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

        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!
