Alabama sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone I live in Birmingham and I was sleeved December 8, 2011 and I started at 412. I am now 315...I was 305 back in June. I'm starting to gain some of my weight back but I think I need to start walking to speed up my weightloss. I drink over the amount of Water and get in my Protein. My goal is 200 so I hope I can make it:)

I'm new to this forum & I'm looking for fellow sleevers in the Alabama area. I'm about a 1.5 yrs out & am doing great but I need support locally. Feel free to add me as friends. I'm probably going to start a local FB group in the Huntsville area if anyone is interested in joining, please let me know.

Thanks...

Suzie

      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!
