I am scheduled for November 18th. I just started a new job after the surgery was scheduled and I am very nervous about getting the time off. I am a self pay and I am afraid of failing. I met with the psychologist this morning and I told him how I lost about 75 lbs on Weight Watchers but gained it all back after an environmental change.

I'm scheduled for the 18th as well. Also anxious to get just past the surgery and start recovery. Started the pre-op diet early to start adjusting more. Don't mind the Protein Shakes but curbing the late afternoon hunger is a challenge. But, sticking to it.

First, I am excited that we are a HOT TOPIC! ha ha

Second, I am so happy that there are a good number of us getting sleeved in the same week - what a support system!

I am on day 5 of my pre-op diet. It has been ok. Sitting at lunch with my fellow teachers munching down on carbs is hard, but I just smile and eat my leafy greens and 4 oz of chicken. The sugar free Jello is a life saver. I know it is a non-food entity, but it makes me "think" I am eating sweets.

So far I have lost 7 pounds in 4 days, and I am motivated!!!!

Hope all of you are doing great as well!

Jackie

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
