Hi everyone. My name is Bonnie and I am 29. I was sleeved November 12, went home on November 14 and came back on November 18 in severe pain. I am NOT trying to scare any one, but I am a part of the 1% that developed a leak. If you guys have any questions or concerns, just let me know and I will try to help!

Hey!! Thx so much. I'm sure you are so excited about Dec. 21 date! I'm excited for you. How long or did you have to do a diet program?

My insurance (anthem bcbs) didn't require one. The program that I am in does require a two week pre-op liquid diet. I'm very thankful that I didn't have to do a 30-60-90 diet as some insurances do have people complete.

I'm not sure why my iPad filled in those numbers for me. I meant to say a 3/6/9 month diet.

      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!
