Hi all - I'm in Lexington and was sleeved on 12/21 by Dr. Weiss (Bluegrass Bariatrics).

Knock on wood, I've had absolutely zero complications and have lost 60 lbs total, 13 of which were pre-op. I'm feeling really great physically although I do seem to be much more easily irritated by minor annoyances since surgery. I'm working on that....hopefully my body and hormones are as well. :)

Tiffy - I'm also on MyFitnessPal and will add you.

Hi! I was. Sleeved Feb. 18, 2013 in Georgetown, by Dr. Weiss. I am down 35 pounds. 13 were before surgery. I am feeling great. Can't wait to get more off. Just losing that much has made feel so much better. I do have some problems with eating some foods and keeping them down. chicken does work at all for me right now nor does baked potatoes.

I'm from Somerset, KY and Dr. Weiss will be doing my surgery. I have three more month of my supervised diet before they submit to my insurance. Anyone else have the 6 month diet? And how long after you finished and were approved did they schedule you for surgery? I also have to have the scope done. Do they do that pretty quickly and get you into surgery ?

I was sleeved 12/21/2011. Dr. Weiss at Central Baptist in Lexington. He is great...easy on the eyes too. lol Too bad post-op all I see is his PA. I have had nothing but a wonderful experience. I'm still learning what to eat and what not to eat even at 16 months out.

      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!
