On 6 day of liquid pre op, very frustrated, having second thoughts, realizing I don't have a supportive family. Wondering if I can do this.

Sleeve surgery went well, a little gas pain but no problems with nausea and vomiting. Hospital stay very easy, as hospital has Bariatric Unit and all staff are knowledgeable and helpful. Dr. Stegemann in Corpus Christi did a great job.

Hi, Doing good, starting to get head hunger. I'm not sure if the feelings in my stomach are hunger or something else. How are you doing?

Since I started full liquids, I'm doing much better. I'm trying to figure out the hunger thing too. FYI... sugar free ice pops have been my saving grace for the past couple days..We just have to take it one day at a time. Let's hang in there.

      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.
