I have a tentative date with Dr. Kelly-Mexico!! May 16th



Recommended Posts

I am tentatively going to be sleeved by Dr. Kelly on May 16th. I am excited and nervous. I am waiting for him to review my medical history to make sure I won't need additional tests or anything before I commit to that date for sure. Is anyone else going around that time. I am still wondering how I am going to make it through the liquid diet, pre-op, but then I remember that I will basically be doing liquids for a long time until I can eat solid again.

Congrats on your date! I'm not sure on my date yet but probably mid to end of May. I am dreading the pre-op diet too, but hopefully it will go fast!

Don't dread the liquids, it's easy-peasey. You will not be hungry with the Protein Shakes. Just remember what you are doing, and why. Your transition to the "lighter side" will be a cinch. Keep the faith!! I went to Mexico and Dr. Kelly did my surgery on March 15th. You will be put at ease the minute you meet him. He's just fantastic. Good luck.

      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'. ???

      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.

      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!
