Do you live in the city or a suburb? We have a small sleever group that meets occasionally( not monthly) . It is nice just to be able to talk and share recipe ideas and foods that we have found that are worth trying. We would love for you to join us if you can next time we meet. It will probably be after the first of the year when we meet again.

I was sleeved in Mexicali by Dr. Aceves. I am 4 weeks out and down 17.5 lbs. Is this normal or slow?

I think you are doing great. We can't compare our weight loss to others, all of our bodies work differently. I am 3 months out tomorrow and down 32 pounds. It has been very slow for me lately. We will reach the goals we have, it just takes time ;)

      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!
