Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Pay if forward! Post Your Gastric Sleeve Surgery Success Story on ThisTimeItCounts.com!



Recommended Posts

I am working with ASMBS on an outreach project called This Time It Counts, and I would like to ask for your participation, please! It’s for members who have had Gastric Sleeve Surgery and have seen results already.

Being a part of the campaign is easy. Just post a short video of yourself telling your Gastric Sleeve Surgery story and post it on This Time It Counts (the instructions are on the page). In your video, you can talk about your Gastric Sleeve Surgery journey. Also, you can mention and talk about how BariatricPal has played a role in your Gastric Sleeve Surgery success :D.

This project will help reach thousands of potential Gastric Sleeve Surgery patients who are trying to make the right decisions for themselves. I hope you will take advantage of this chance to give back!

Thank you!

Wow what a cool idea! I haven't had surgery yet so can't contribute. I don't even know how to make a video when the time comes However you can be assured I will be visiting that page once it is up and running to view the videos of those you have had the surgery. I can use all the support I can get and just love reading and hearing about all the success.

I was sleeved 3 months ago and I'm on this site multiple times a day. It has helped me so much. Thank you to all!

Hey Alex,

Finally got to submit my video. I hope it encourages those curious about their WLS options to look further into deciding if WLS is right for them.

Here's the link to my video, you might want to pay special attention to the lower right hand corner of the background image.

      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?
