Been Sleeved Too



Recommended Posts

Hello my name is Deb and I am very new. I joined the group but I am still moving my way through it, I wish I could add a ticker deal. I am 11 days post op, and still feel pretty weak. I wanted to introduce my self so that I can connect with some folks. Hope this works...

Hey! Welcome to the boards :) This really is an amazing support group! I was sleeved 6 days ago so I'm not too far from where you are.

The tickers are pretty easy. You go to a site like tickerfactory.com or just google weigh loss ticker. You run through the steps and then enter your data. Then it will give you a bunch of codes, you copy and paste the one meant for forums (on tickerfactory it is the first one) into your profile. You may need to play around on your profile and settings to get used to it, but after going through it it should make sense. There is also a ticker tutorial on the boards. I'm not exactly sure where but i'm sure if you search it, it will come right up.

      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!
