Any Iowa sleevers?

Thanks...I'm hoping in February. Nobody down in Missouri knows I'm having the surgery now. For that matter none of them know about me getting married in 3 days either. Long story...but I need to keep it that way. So it will have to wait till February till I can go down there. I will try and post a picture of the baby as soon as I get one.

Thank you all.

Hey I just wanted to throw this out there....at my support group meeting last night, I heard of a counselor for eating disorders....even though I don't believe I had one except over eating....I'm going to give her a call. I think it would benefit me extremely well. Just sayin...everyone has their reasons for our food addiction....I just need to get to the root of mine.

And FYI...day 6 of liquids...super breeze!!! No kidding. I am doing great with the liquids. I'm getting closer and closer. Tomorrow is my preop testing and meet with surgeon. I got this!!!!

Day 7 preop liquid diet....now that I figured out that I absolutely need to have my Vitamin B 12....I'm doing soooo much better. It really makes a huge difference. Today is my pre op visit at hospital and with surgeon. Tomorrow is pre op physical and getting married. So much going on this week.

I hope everyone is having an awesome week!!!!

      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!
