I did it! Got sleeved this morning. I feel pretty good. I really want ice chips. My mouth is so dry! I just noticed my lymph nodes are swollen, but I'm not freaking.

Over all, I'm pretty happy!

Got sleeves this morning! One minute they put an one gym mask over my mouth and the next minute I'm done! Yeah! Relatively low pain... Not as much as I thought. No gas pains until after my last wall, but it's not too bad either. Only glich is they won't give me broth or SF Popsicles, which they said we could have in the pre-op class. Only ice chips. Other than that, feeling great about my decision to do this! Hope you are all feeling well and recovering quickly!

PS - looks like I'm down 15 lbs from my 2 week pre-op diet! Yeah!

Official sleeve sisal. However I am stoned and high as a kit

Same here!! Pain has subsided a great deal with the help of the liquid roxi. I've managed to get in roughly 18 ounces of Fluid as well and several wallks. Wishing happy thoughts and speedy recoveries to all!

I may get to go home tomorrow. My morphine pump was giving me a headache so they were going to try an oral pain killer. Doc said it would be a liquid but when it arrived it was a pill and I was afraid to swallow it!

I've had apple juice and ice chips and walking and sleeping. How's everyone else doing?

I'm good so far. I can't take much off the lunch tray other than the Protein powders and Water. Everything is has made me nauseated. Pain has been tolerable for the most part. Shoulder hurt pretty bad yesterday but it's better today. I've walked 3 times today and hopefully they will let me out tomorrow.

I'm home and feel great, but I think I'm just happy to be home. It'll sink soon enough when I freak out about getting my liquids in. I downloaded an interval timer app and set it for 15 minute intervals to make sure I drink 2 ounces each time it rings. Lets see how long that lasts! Lol GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

Feeling awful! Still in hospital for at leased another day. Apparently he had to hand sew a part cuz the stapler was misfiring and that section is very narrow. Been regurgitating spit balls the whole night. I just want to be back home.. Regretting this so badly, I miss my kids like crazy.

      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!
