I was sleeved on 2/26. Recovery has been a bit slow. I ended up with a huge (12 " x 4") bruise on my left side. The dr did a CT scan last week and it looks like I had a small internal bleed which stopped. Been running a fever with it as my body is working hard to reabsorb the blood. Because of the bruise, I am still need to take tylenol to get through the day and I take a half dose of prescription at night.

food wise I'm up to full liquids and that has been sooo much better than Clear Liquids. I'm finally doing fine with getting enough fluids and picked up unflavored Protein Powder over the weekend to get my Protein increased. Thankfully food is starting to taste good again :-)

So far, I'm down 45 lbs total - 36 pre surgery/9 post. Only have another 100 or so to go :-)

I was sleeved in Feb 26th at 322 lbs. So far so good. I've adapted pretty well to the diet.. I am now on soft foods and 23 days out I have dropped

30 lbs. I'm taking off about 1 lb to 1/2 lb a day. Looking forward to the 280's shortly!

      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!
