Anyone getting sleeved on august 30th?



Recommended Posts

I feel the same. I am hoping that these negative feelings will soon pass as we emerge from our former selves. At least you're not alone




I have really suffered from mind hunger. And realizing that I am so addicted to food. It was a rough first week for me. We all have our own issues and it's always nice to talk to! Cause no matter how much you research, no one can really prepare you for this mentally.

I suffer from OCD and I can't stop obsessing that my doctor messed up on my sleeve and made it too big.
He did my wife's sleeve and I swear mine is bigger.

I promise it is not! But you have to know that women and men are so much different with how our bodies react to things! How much are you able to eat now that you are on soft foods?

I haven't measured anything.
But I know it is too much.
I need to order a digital scale.

Yes!! I highly recommend. Even if you feel as if you are able to eat a bunch of food, you shouldn't. Measuring food will help tremendously. I also watched a surgeons video and he said we should be eating food the size of our palm for life if we are doing things right. And the size of our hand if it's a salad. If you eat more than that you could stretch your sleeve!

      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!
