Ok ya'll. Who is getting sleeved this month? Lets keep a running list so we can all check on each other in September, and all the days closely following surgery. I'm sooo excited (and kinda scared) but my date is pretty far away. Who's close???

August 10th here. Weird but my doctor doesn't have any pre-op special diet to follow, other than trying to increase Protein and decrease carbs. Seems like a lot of people on here have to do a liquid diet pre-op or otherwise.

My Dr. doesn't require a pre-op either. I don't want any excuses to get there and not be able to go through with it. So i'm shrinking my liver and trying to change my habits before surgery. The Dr. and NUT has to know i'm serious about all of this.

I'm your August 2nd sleeve buddy - gosh, that's so soon. I didn't have any type of diet to do before hand other than the pre op liquid diet to shrink the liver, but I also wanted to lose as much as possible and to date am down 47lbs!! The no food thing is getting to me, so I hid in my room for a few hours today trying on clothes. OMG, most were tight, but they were starting to look good, even a few regular size shirts (not plus size) I am so motivated and ready right now. Stella ain't got nuthin on my groove. Uh huh!

My surgery date is Aug 24th! I'd do it tomorrow if I could! I'm MORE than ready! The only thing that concerns me is once I start to eat solid foods, being able to eat slowly enough and not drink with my food! I better start practicing now!!! Good luck everyone!!biggrin.gif

      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!
