I walk for about 10 minutes up and down my street. ( I live in the country) I don't push myself or anything, just slow and steady. It really feels great during and after the walks. I actually enjoy them now. Trust me...if you have gas...IT HELPS! Good luck

Hi there! I live in Uptown Dallas, right near the American Airlines Center. I'm getting sleeved in Mexico on 4/28 - 13 days!!!! I can't wait! I'm going through this totally alone, so I would love to have some sleeve buddies to go through this with me!

Baylor has a support group and I went on 4/12 and it was really great! We need to get together and support each other!!

Take care,

Cynthia

Hi Cynthia congrats! I am in southwest fort worth and I am having surgery on May 10 with dr. Ponce de leon in Tijuana Mexico! I need a support group too locally. I went to the baylor one here and it was ok but no one other than the presenter talked :( so I don't think it was much of a support group. Who is your surgeon?

Cynthia & Lbeauty,

Keep us update on your progress. Several of us are from the Dallas/Ft Worth area. Good luck on your upcoming surgeries. Mine got move to 4/25 and I'm getting more and more excited!

How is the rest of the Ft Worth/Dallas post op folks feeling? Everybody healing good? We should all find a point of contact to meet up at any support meetings.

      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!
