had my sleeve 10/2012 and since then gotten pregnant twice. before I got pregnant I lost 115lbs. now I seem to not have any restriction..i barely feel full. im barely loosing.

my question is are drs very strict on switching patients over? do u have to have a good reason tow revise, is having no restriction good enough? how easy is it..i don't want them to deny me...my apt not til July 8th, that's when im gonna mention it. I got down to 185 before pregnancy and im at 239 right now. I just feel the sleeve doesn't like me anymore...and I have 130lbs to lose still...also if u have any info on the bypass, I appreciate it!

I mentioned in my other post about why I am sleeve to bypass. I still have to meet requirements by my insurance company, so you will want to check the revision requirements. There is several sleeve to bypass posts on here. I follow most of them :-) remember lilmissdiva- Irene she had a lapband, then sleeve and converted to bypass because of gerd. She was very active on the forums when we were prepping for surgery.

Your dr is probably gonna want to do at EDG to see what is going on with your tummy...

      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.

      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!
