Anyone looking at an August surgery date?



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow, 8/16 is my sleeve day. Just wondering what everyone's experiences were like during the first week home. Pain, nausea, mobility or sleep issues, etc? Did you need a lot of assistance from others during the first week or two post surgery?

I am scheduled for 8/31/16. I will start my liquid diet tomorrow for 2 weeks. I am getting extremely anxious.... I just want it to be over! I started the process in February and have had my date marked on the calendar since my consultation. It seems like forever ago. I am looking to make some new friends to bounce some ideas/experiences off of. Anyone getting sleeved late August 2016?

Mine is on August 29th. I'm feeling slightly anxious too. Don't fret too much on the liquid diet. The first day is hard, but I found either having a little chicken broth or a sugar free popsicle helped to satisfy my need to eat. I've just avoided being around other people eating at the moment.

Good luck!

August 29th as well. 10 day pre op diet started today. My sales guy bought sushi for everyone today. It kinda sucked but strangely it wasn't bad.

      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!
