12 Days remaining October 7th sleevers! Who's excited, me lol! I know it's quite a few of us. Second day on pre-op diet (low-carb), it's going well for me. My husband is also participating with me on the diet :), he's a great support. How's everyone else doing on pre-op?

I just had to put in my leave absence from work today. It just got real. The surgery is exactly 7 days away. I cried a lot and had a slight panic attack. I pulled it together and wrote up ny advance directive and made sure my beneficiaries were up to date. There is so much to do.

@spelmanite10. I know your head is spinning right about now. I believe crying is very normal for some. Good job on getting things in order. However, I am choosing to believe that everything will work out just fine.

take a moment to just inhale slowly and exhale, breathe my friend breathe.

I asked for a day off for my preop class and upper gi and they didn't want to give me time off. Asked me to post pone if I could. They are not going to be happy when I tell them I will be out two weeks. This is why I can't tell them it's for weight loss.

Hello everyone, third day on pre-op. I've suffered with major headaches today I'm assuming it's due to my diet not really sure. I'm pressing forward, right now all I want to do is sleep for the next 11 days :(. October 7th sleevers 11 days remaining (first time I've smiled this afternoon :)). I'm hoping I feel a little better tomorrow. Hang in everyone, we can do this!

      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!
