February Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

my surgery is now February 23rd!!! I start the liquid diet on the Feb 8th and this will truly be a test of wills. I've never done an all liquid anything for more than a few hours, so for 14 days...ouch...just looking for others who will be going through the journey this month as well...

I start it on Feb. 10. It's going to be really hard because I leave for PV Mexico on Feb15. I will be doing my pre op diet at an all inclusive resort there. All that food!! Surgery is the 24 and I fly home March 1.

Febuary 15, and on day 3 of pre-op liquid diet. Brutal is the best word to describe it. I'm 550lbs truly hoping this helps me get down there. The fatigue during pre op diet is insane for me. Not to mention I hate artificial sweeteners so what I drink is very limited. Struggling big time.

I'm going to be struggling just like you so your not alone, I can't even imagine. I'm worried about the fatigue too because I have to work and my job is seated but fast paced and stressful uggg this is the part of the surgery I dread

Sorry I can't be more help. I'm really struggling at this point, I'm lactose intolerant so the shakes are just brutal too. I just keep trying to stay focused. I know I need this so that helps but the stomach pain and fatigue is crazy. And for some odd reason I cannot stop going to the bathroom even though I've only had 3 Protein Shakes a day for 3 straight days. Maybe my body is just flushing I don't know.

      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!
