Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for 10/26 down here in Texas. I'm definitely feeling a mixture of things...but I'm mostly excited to start this next chapter in my life!! I spent my childhood, teens, 20's and half my 30's being overweight-super morbidly obese. This ends later this month! I'm finally taking control! I want to set a better example for my daughter!!

Hello. I am having surgery on Oct 19th!!! I do not have to do a preop diet. Just maintain my weight where they wanted me to be and I am. And the night before surgery I cant eat anything after 6pm.

Nervous-excited- ready for this new adventure. I need to go buy some loose shorts and teeshirt for the stay and some slippers. I have bought some broth for the first stage then some puddings and cream Soups for the second stage. I want to be ready. Hoping I dont have to take 4 weeks off. but we will see. I want to be safe and heal. Good luck to all. Hope we can connect with our journey on here. hugss

For the people who are doing a 2 week diet what are you about to consume? Also I saw someone else who had an October Facebook group, if I created one would anyone like to join also? We could ask questions and such and help with support, recipes, workouts, etc. please let me know.

Hi, I'm having the sleeve 10/14. I just created a Facebook group for October sleevers support. It's secret so nobody can search it or see the posts. If you'd like to be added, message me your email.

      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!
