July sleevers! Are we ready!



Recommended Posts

I get sleeved on Wed. July 24!!! I ordered my Vitamins, but they aren't in yet, have 1 weeks worth of low cal Protein Powder, most all of my medications, but I'm SO nervous. I'm mainly nervous about 'dumping', hunger, and nausea.

I"m SO glad to have found this support forum online!

Doing my pre-op liquids and preparing for my trip to Mexico to be sleeved 7/30. Getting nervous, anxious, and scared. :blink:

Hi! Sleeved on July 16 and doing well. This is my first post! I guess my only complaint is bloating! I hate it!

Same here! Although nothing is needed at the hospital besides your clothes, I feel like something is missing. I hate that feeling. Good luck tomorrow!!

American woman, I'm right up the road from you! I live near 287 & 20. I shop in Mansfield often and I go to the movies there. So we are fellow foodies... I had my "last supper" tonight at Red Lobster. I have been craving scallops and wanted a few before I start shakes tomorrow. I had a beer to Celebrate. I know ... but it was a light beer! Probably my last one!

I have gradually gotten myself up to 250 pounds from 180 only six years ago. I went from 110 to 180 over the course of 30 plus years that included three pregnancies. I was a little bitty thing ... I'm more than twice the woman I was when I got married!

I NEED to lose weight. It's a struggle to carry around all of this extra weight. I was very active 10 years ago ... Camping, hiking, biking, rafting, had a sailboat. Now I can't even hike through the mall! I ride a cart at Walmart and Target. I'm so ready to lose the weight!

Good luck to all of you having surgery tomorrow and the rest of the week. Ill be thinking of you!

      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!
