They like to see no polish so they can see the color of the nail beds

That makes sense. I'll take it off. Thank you

They just told me no red nail polish. They prefer French manicure if we have anything but they have nothing in the pre op paperwork about no polish.

Welp I'm wearing red polish so off it goes lol.

thank you!! I think I'm gonna have to run to target and pick that up tomorrow!

I have had my Ninja for two years and love it. What I am finding though is for now I need to puree little jobs which the Ninja is not doing so well. I am purchasing the bullet to get me through the pureed stage and it is small enough to take to work with me.

Wal mart has something like the bullet for $20 and it works good. Best $20 I've ever spent. Congrats to all being sleeved today.

The ninja I have came with 3 different sizes so it works well.

And what I did when I ate something.... like sweet potato Soup I just pureed 2 or so cups at a time and then put the soup in ice cube trays and then I put them in snack size bags in freezer marked. So then when I return to work I just pop a few out of the freezer and of I go with my little baggies of food.< /p>

I was sleeved on 2/19 and incision pain is not an issue for me. However, gas pains are still pretty severe. I am told that it takes a week or two to subside completely.

Yes just try and clear your mind and keep calm. And before you know it you will be on the other side of it. It will be rough going for a short time and then it gets better every day! I'm 11 days out and I'm feeling freaking great!

Best of luck and a speedy recovery

      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!
