Hi Ladies! No date yet, but I'm on schedule and it should be approved for early September. Anxious. I have not been able to lose my "mandatory" weight. Its not even a lot. But, I went through the eat now before surgery urges. Yikes! Its been hard, but now in the mode to get it done. GOOD LUCK to all of us. It is our destiny to be healthier.

Hello! I am new here and officially began my sleeve journey today with my consult with my surgeon. I am living and working in Taipei, Taiwan so I am having my surgery done here (cheaper then in the US too). Looking at a late August or anytime in September surgery date (no red tape of 6 months proven failed attempts or classes here....National Health Care FTW!) :thumbup:

As this becomes a reality I do feel some nerves setting in that "are you sure you are ready for this" feeling but I know this is my only way to healthier and happier me!

Congrats on your dates! Right now, I'm trying to visualize me going in on surgery morning and being calm. I've heard that you should work out your lungs before surgery by blowing up small size balloons, once you blow them up, throw em away and keep doing this-a anestetheologist recommended that... So just to be safe, why not? Share what's going thru your minds at this time... We are not alone in this~:001_smile:

      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!
