Any April/May 2016 sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for April 25. It's taken over a year to get here and suddenly it's feeling pretty real.

April 14th Birmingham Al! Excited. Nervous. And a little scared. Such a drastic and non reversible procedure. But so very tired of being overweight and in pain daily with my back and other joints. I know it is the right thing for me. But reading some post on Facebook page about the first month and people putting things like "starting to doubt my decision" because of nausea and not being able to keep anything down and then those that say "down 5 lbs in a month" make me doubt my decision but then I read others that are so very positive and I realized that everyone is going to be different and that I have to have my own journey and it has to be for me.

Hi everyone. I am scheduled for 04-26-16. I start my liquid pre-op diet on 04-12-16. Not necessary looking forward to the pre-op diet, but I am excited about my surgery.

My surgery date is on April 11th. I am not on the 2 week liquid diet and it is SUPER hard. The Protein Shakes are really grossing me out so I am having a hard time getting my Protein in. Any suggestions?

I'm new to this forum and a bit nervous. I'm set for surgery the 29th of April I've done my cardiac clearance sleep study and all I need is my labs and physician clearance. This will a surgery to remove my lap band and he will be doing the sleeve. I got the band in 2011 and lost 100 lbs but after having a baby, it's just not working anymore. Good luck to everykne

      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?
