I'm sleeved



Recommended Posts

Well it's now Friday was sleeved on Wednesday had a bad reaction to the anesthetic and was wrenching for 24 hours so just on a drip. My surgeon swapped my meds and so I had a my fluids yesterday . It's a but like a funnel gurgling down into ur stomach!! I'm trying to drink really slowly but still getting a few bubbles the nurse said to sip and then walk ??anyways worst is over and thankyou for the mantra. I went under the anesthetic repeating I will do this I will wake up I will lose weight I will be healthy I will love myself more I do love my family. I will love me. So thankyou for all ur support any tips about the bubbles would be great!

Congratulations on your surgery! The bubbling will go away, right now your stomach tissue is so swollen it's like trying to pour a lot of liquid into a straw. As the swelling goes down, you will feel better and better. Keep drinking, burping, and walking!

Bless your self-----soon to be your little self! I haven't had my surgery yet, but I know you are going to have better days now! I'm not so worried about the anesthetic, but things do happen. Keep on---sip, walk, sip, walk. It's behind you!

Had my Bariiatric nurse come in and told me to but the glass in my mouth and drink while the Water was still around my mouth. She said it helps eliminate the swallowing of air. I tried it it seemed to hellp me out a little. I think it is just one of those things that past. I really didn't like the swallowing of air either. But congrads to you you are offically on the losing bench..Welcome

      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!
