Dr Kelly isn't the cheapest and he isn't the most expensive but I've heard so many great things about him and his staff that I feel comfortable with choosing him as my surgeon

I was sleeved by Dr. Kelly on May 14, 2012 and my cost was $6,000 due to my high BMI (>50). He was fantastic, very professional and also very caring! I felt like I was a part of his family (he gets everyone involved in his practice, his wife, his kids.....it's amazing!). Omar, his assistant is terrific about getting back to you quickly regarding questions, and he's there for you every day you're in Mexico.

I could not have been happier with my choice, and I'm now 8 weeks post-op and down 40 lbs (including 11 lbs pre-op, on 2 week liquid diet).

Web chickadee... Are you going to continue blogging? Just curious. I like to read Dr. Kelly patients progress since I will be going alone soon.

I've fallen hopelessly behind on my blog! I spend so much time here reading and answering posts! A few people have asked though, and I feel guilty that they want to hear more! I'll try to get caught 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!
