Can you tell us a little more about life with your sleeve at six months out?

Thanks Sleeves Sisters I still keep pitching myself. Humpty I can feel my hip bones and in the right light you can see my rib bones on my chest I'm 54 and just discovering how different a 54 year old body looks from a 30 year old body. You and I are both shorties and your weight is close to what my sw was I can not imagine that I am anything but average in my weight loss so hopefully come Christmas you will be in the forties!

Sleeve4me you already are there remember you are 3" taller then I am which makes you weight loss at 6 months ahead of me.

At six months out I pretty much eat whatever I want within reason. I will always have to watch slider foods I try to stick with the Protein first rule with every meal. I start almost every morning with a Protein shake. I plan my meals ahead of time as much as I can if we are going out I'll check out their menu online. I go out typically twice a week and I have never had a server make a comment. I walk 5 miles a day five days a week but to be honest I don't think the walking is much of a factor to my weight loss since I have been doing the same walk for more then 7 years and I imagine I am burning less calories walking at 146 then I was at 208. Hope this helps.

      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!
