January 2013 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I think I put on 4lbs or so over the holidays but I figure I'll probably lose it during this preop diet. I'm so glad I don't have to do liquids, I wouldn't be able to function.

Mine could be January or February it was suppose to have been done in December but for reasons out of my control I'm stuck waiting for docs assistants to get on the ball and get me in for remaining test needed to be done there at ucsf.

January 25 for me. Started pre-op diet a few days ago. Getting sleeved in Cancun with Dr. Perez. Post-opping in Isla Mujeres with my husband for a few days before heading back home. Nervous about the surgery but really looking forward to the recover time.

The 8th is almost here! I am excited for all of us!! I am doing the "nervous / anxiety" type stuff right now - like cleaning my room, closet, bathroom (want it all to be comfortable for me when I get back from hospital). Organizing like crazy - reminds me of when I nested before my kids were born...lol - I guess this the new "birth" - just delivering a stomach instead of a baby...lol!!!!

      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!
