Tomorrows the day!



Recommended Posts

By this time tomorrow, 9/28/15, I will be out of surgery and sleeved. I'm trying really hard to not be nervous. The surgery itself does not concern me too much but the recovery is the part I'm not a fan of. My family is very supportive and my cabinet is stocked with what I'll need so I'm sure all will be fine. I'm just ready to be on the other side and be on the losers bench!

Best of luck to you. It will be over before you know it. I am six weeks out and I can't believe it. It's the best thing I've done for my health.

Good luck to you all!!

You are going to be so happy- this is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself!

The first couple of days are going to be a bit tough (gas pains!!) But you will be feeling fantastic in a few days.

CONGRATS!!!

Good luck everyone!! I am one week post op and still can't believe it! I was a nervous wreck about my surgery and wasn't even 100% certain that I wasn't gonna chicken out at the last minute due to anxiety!! But honestly I wish I could have calmed myself because it really just wasn't that bad. My worst memory is having to drink that disgusting contrast Fluid. I will be thinking of everyone and hoping u all have smooth transitions:)

Well I am officially one day post op now. I was pretty much a wreck yesterday morning on the way to check in at the hospital but I just pushed through and it hasn't been bad at all. I've been a bit sick at my stomach but not bad. The worst pain is getting in and out of the bed. So I am hopeful for the future now. I'd love to hear from any of you that just got sleeved as well to see how your doing as well.

      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!
