Hi everyone! Just wanted to update everyone I was sleeved on the 11th and am post op day 4 and doing great. I have been off of all pain medications since the night of the surgery and other than having some episodes of nausea I have been having a really smooth recovery and don't regret a thing. I was very nervous the days leading up to the surgery especially seeing almost every thread on here having posts about terrible complications. Now I have come to realize I think they were all from the same person or two. Anyways I just wanted to update you all and thank everyone for all the invaluable information I have received on here from "lurking" and posting a few times on my own. If I can be of any help to anyone in the future I would be happy to

Good luck to you!! I was sleeved on the 12th~ doing well. Still have some gas pressure, other than that, doing great. Started my Protein shakes and Clear liquids. Everything going down fine and staying down. Wondering when the weight will start coming off. I know it's only day 4..lol. Just excited. Still bloated from the surgery, but looking forward to the loss.

That's awesome! I had my sleeve on the 11th too. I also had a hiatal hernia repaired at the same time. I'm doing pretty good.I'm on full liquid diet. I still have a little pain on my right incision where they removed my stomach through. But overall doing great. I can't weight to move forward with a better healthy life.

      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?

        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.
