6 months out with pics



Recommended Posts

I had my 6 month follow up and it went great. All blood work within normal limits. Still off blood pressure medication for 3 months. Down 72 pounds. I did not buy new clothes untill I hit onederland. I have gone from a 22/24 pant to a 12/14 and a tight 3x to a L/XL shirt. I even bought a shirt in the juniors!!! it was an extra large but still JUNIORS!!!! We went on vacation and I sported a regular swim suit instead of a swim dress.!!!! I am loving it.

Sorry to hijack the thread - I am about 90 miles north east of St Louis and would love to have sleeve buddies nearby! I am working on my 6 months insurance deal and hoping to have sleeve in August. I go to my surgeon Thursday and very excited to talk to him and get lots of info!

      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!
