Hi Dimples,

I'm very very excited and a little nervous at the same time! It feels like from the time I started the process up until now; the time flew by! In two more days for me and 3 for you our lives will definitely change for the better. Please keep me posted on your journey as I will do the same.

Best wishes,

TW

Hi Starry,

I think it's very normal to be nervous. Right now, I'm feeling a lot of different emotions. However, excitment over-powers every last one of them. Good luck to you and keep us posted on your journey.

Hello everybody! My surgery is schedule for April 4, 2011...Is there anyone else getting sleeved in April?

Hi

yes, i'm scheduled for April 27th, 2011. Not real nervous about the surgery itself, kinda worried about the pain and the first couple weeks after. also wonder if my sleeve will be right size.

Hi ya'll!

My surgery is set for April 5! I'm excited! I think stomach knows I'm about to kick it to the curb. It's doing this "you can't fire me! I quit!" kind of thing. I went to the GNC yesterday and the guy working was very helpful!! I got my post-surgery Protein drinks. I really hope they aren't too good because I can't afford to drink them everyday lol. Best of luck to all of you and I hope we can keep in touch =)

OK my April 11th friends, we have just a little over a week left... Makes me was to break out in song!

To the tune of.....

I'm So Excited

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

Seriously, I am very excited, no second thoughts even though my Hubby was saying "Are you sure you want to do this?" when he realized I won't be able to go out to eat for a long time which is our favorite thing to do.

I am just curious how mu stomach is going to come out in all of this. I had a Tummy Tuck 3 years ago and they tighten your stomach muscles. I got rid of the "Over hang" but since the 3 years the top part is bulging. I hope the tightening stayed.

Only real concerns I have is my thighs have gotten big and harbor tons of cellulite. I am really concerned how they will come out in all of this.

I have read a lot of the journeys on this forum and the people that say they are pain free or greatly reduced pain are the true inspiration for my journey. I live with a lot of pain on a daily basis and to be able to wake up for even a few days pain free at any given time is going to be a God Send!

April 8th for me. This time next week I'm planning on being right back here in my house, feeling relieved and I hope, not too bad!

      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!
