Checking in. Sleeved 11/20 and have had no complications. I can't believe it. Surgery was at 7:30am, slept all day due to anathestisa and morphine. When I realized that the morphine contributes to dizziness, I got off that quick. Felt so much better the next day and was checked out at 4pm. Great experience so far!! Good luck all.

8 days post op and continuing to feel well. Trying to get the eating thing down. Have experienced lots of head hunger and getting used to the amount of food that I can eat with my sleeve. Looks so much smaller than normal but still too much for me. Am able to get down 2 Protein Shakes daily which gives me a minimum of 60g Protein per day. Left part of my ab is still sore, but not so much that I can't get around. I keep my binder on which gives my abs support throughout the day. Have had NSVs by trying on my preop clothes today...what a boost! Also put together collages of pictures over the last month...what a change! Good luck to all!!

      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!
