I think I am going to do sleeve. I say "think" because I was very sure that's what I wanted but the more research I do, I am starting to lean towards RNY. I think it might be better for me with the amount of weight I need to lose. My surgeon said it's pretty much up to me since I do not have any underlying health issues (which I'm very grateful for). Are you doing RNY?

I have my seminar next week and it feels like things are going to slow but after this it seems like it may go very fast! i am so nervous but this community has made it so much better!

Im glad the endoscopy went well! ive never had one and ive never been put under any sedation at all. No surgeries of any kind. Honestly terrified but i really want this!

Just a couple steps closer! Congrats!

I am doing the rny for a few reasons. Mostly my acid reflux and needing to lose 150#

You’re the first person I found who’s at the same point in the process as I am![emoji30] At first the 6 month thing annoyed the hell out of me, but now I’m kind of thankful for it. Gives us lots of time to get accustomed to all the changes we have to make.



Hows it going?

      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.

        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!
