Would like to join the group please. I'm 53 years young. At 301#

Had the lapband 3 years ago and lost weight but had a lot of medical trouble occurring with it. I lost 60# but fell and broke my leg in July and had to depend on others to cook for me and no weight bearing for 13 weeks I put most it back on. So im going in and replacing the band for the Sleeve. Would love to go through this journey with like supporters.

I'm scheduled for December 22,2016

Good to hear from you. Hope you feel better soon. I'm on the way to Texas now and will be sleeved in the morning at 930 am

Feel like I've been punched in the gut today. My liquid goal today is 48 oz but I don't think I'll make it. I stay so full just sipping!

Good luck to all of you!

Scheduled Dec 6. Very nervous. I am afraid and not sure why? I have had surgery before. I am grieving food already. I am afraid I will never be able to eat normal foods. I could use some support.

I was just sleeved on December 2. I didn't get nervous until I got to the hospital. You will be just fine. Take a minute at a time. Take some deep breathes.

Hello all... I made it to Texas and at the hospital waiting to be called back to be prepped for surgery... excited and a wee bit nervous... my wonderful son is here with me so he is keeping me updated about all latest news in young people world ( he is 20 years old) . So, he is a good distraction. I will post an update when I wake up, lol.

      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!
