Hey guys. I'm in Lee's Summit. I'm still in the 6-visit pre-sugery for insurance approval stage and have 3 visits down and 3 to go. For years my PCP, Dr. Cheray, pushed to have bariatric surgery, but I was A) scared of it and B) wanted to have the success on my own. And for years I struggled with weight loss on my own. Finally I talked to my Dr on my own terms and he was very happy with my decision. He referred me to Dr. Drahota and I will be having the sleeve hopefully in April or May after my 6th visit. I am very excited to be the me I was supposed to be, and have a life changing experience. I know I'm still ways off from being a sleever in KC, but I still wanted to say hi and congrats to those who have already had success.

      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!
