Anyone take the journey with their spouse ?

@@bellabeans - I know of several couples who have done this together, but usually one does it, nurses the other and then a month later the other spouse has the surgery. (Ladies always come first...always)

My husband and I are both getting band to sleeve revisions. The Dr wants to wait a month between surgeries, but we are hoping for 3 weeks. Hopefully late July and mid August. We got our approvals Friday so just playing the waiting game for our surgery dates, hoping to hear tomorrow!!

Mine is July 28 and my husband could have had his august 18th, but our son is getting married august 20 and my husband is doing the ceremony. He didn't think he would be able to perform the wedding that close after surgery so he is trying to get a later date, but not too late.

My hubby and I are both having the rny done. Since we have 2 small kids at home our surgeon recommended making our surgeries at least 6 weeks apart. I go in on July 27th so hubby will be 6 weeks later.

My spouse is planning on pursuing a sleeve, but only after I am fully recovered.

      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.

      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!
