I've always wanted a sister!

Hey, let me tell you! A sleeve sister is wayyyyyy more important than a biological sister! ;o))))

A sleeve sister 'gets it' and a biological sister is just jealous!

Wasa, you are right, I couldnt even tell my bio sister, she just couldnt take having me go through another surgery and I couldnt even start talking about Mexico, so no she didnt get it but my sleeve sisters definitely do. We are on here every day and on the phone.

Well my biological sister is 5'3 and wears maybe a size 10 ... of course when we were in HS she wore a size 1. So she definitely wouldn't get it.

Ruthi and Eyfura know what I went through -shared it with me and we do "talk" daily.

Everyone else on this site gets it too ... or will get it once they have their surgery. It's a GREAT extended family!

I've moved my surgery date from August 9 to July 10; three weeks from now!!! I decided to do this because Dr. A is having a deal for the month of July. $8750 instead of $9500.

Hi Rosey... I've got to ask who doctor A is. My surgery is set for July 2nd with doctor alverez and it's 9,500. Are you going to him or the other Dr A.

Thanks, Ron

I just figured it out and you're not going to Alverez.

My Sleeve Plication surgery is scheduled for July 12, 2010 at The Hospital Star Medica with Dr. Jose Rodriguez.

We might not be going the same set day or the same dr but it is pretty dang close so I would love to keep on touch with you while we both going through all these changes.

I start my pre-op diet today but mine isn't just shakes. I just have to stay with high protien items like eggs and meat but it is hard sometimes knowing what is in everything so I use these Breakfast shakes that taste pretty good. They are 9 grams of crabs instead of 6 grams but they work. Does anyone have a pre-op diet they like?

      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!
