You all are going to be great!! I was sleeved Feb 3rd and have lost total of 79lbs! The best thing to do is make a schedule for yourself and stick to it as much as possible! Also I found that for my one cup of veggies, a small salad between 2 and 4 was best for me! My partner made a nice chart with Excel that helped me to ensure I was getting all requirements for the day in! If anyone would like to try it just let me know and I will share!

To attach you just need to reply to a post and hit the "More Reply Options" at the bottom instead of Post, that brings up a bigger screen and at the bottom there is a link that says "Attach Files". Click on Choose File which brings up the standard screen that allows you to pick the file on your computer and upload it.

You can also do it by creating a new post, the "Attach Files" shows at the bottom of that window by default.

I hope that helps. Once uploaded, I believe it will show in your profile under settings, manage attachments.

May 10th... OMG! Thursday is almost here. I leave May 9th so that day will just fly by (I hope). The liquid diet has been tough. My 2 little nieces don't understand why aunt Jenny can't eat food. Too cute.

Tick tock ... I will be getting on a plane in less than 8 hours. I am so excited and not nervous. I must say that the bowel prep sucked!

That's great that you're not nervous. I'm curious how they plan the pre-surgery prep stuff when you have to fly to get there, because my bowel prep is the day before my surgery. Are you on Water only, or fasting?

      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!
