I've been heavy most of my life!

I've tried so many things to lose weight but none worked out.

So I finally decided to have a surgery, I was going back-and-forth between Lapband and gastric sleeve but finally I decided to go along with the sleeve.

I'm not getting any younger will be 27 in April and I want to live my life in a healthy way.

My surgery is scheduled for March 31st (exactly 5 days from today) and I am both excited and nervous!!! :unsure: Looking for some encouragement during this time, anyone else doing the surgery on 31st of March?

Any advice from people who have already had the surgery?

Wish me luck :)

I'm also scheduled for March 31st, with pre op tomorrow. I'm super EXCITED! My husband just had his on March 6th and I was anxious and nervous and every other emotion you can think of, so I got that out of the way with him. My motto is the positivity breeds positivity. Think good thoughts and image yourself doing well postoperatively. Also, remember why you're doing this...a better quality of life! (For most ppl). Also, think of all the wonderful things you'll gain. I wish you a successful journey on your new path of life.

May the road rise to meet you!

My surgery is also March 31st. At this point I wish it would just come on. I'm so tired of thinking about it and worrying. 4 days and counting. Lol.

I'm also scared, but try to distract yourself with anything so that you wont think about it.

Hope all goes well with you :)

      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!
