September 2013 sleevers..Requesting sleeve buddies :)



Recommended Posts

September 23rd for me' date=' in Overland Park, KS. Seems like everything is happening so fast. I get a little nervous if I spend time and start thinking about it. I have 4 kids so that is constantly on my mind (what if I am the 1%). I try not to think that way though, try to stay more positive. All in all the wife is being really supportive and looking forward to the new me!!![/quote']

I have 4 kids as well, I've struggled with the what if's. but I've come to grips, that if I don't correct myself now, I won't be around as long. My hubby is there for me either way. The most he really has said is he wants to grow old with me. I took over a year thinking if this was my right choice. I know what I want & where I want to go & be.

Good luck on your journey.

I'm September 10 also. I just did all my pre-op stuff on Wednesday. Found out my Vitamin D is low enough to put me on prescription strength Vitamin D for the next 8 weeks. I will start my pre-op diet on the 3rd and have all the shake mixes for that but still need to buy some of the approved Clear liquids to add to it. Turned in my FMLA stuff to HR today. I haven't shopped for any post op things yet nor have I thought about my hospital bag. Honestly I'll probably do most of that the weekend before. I did get my Vitamins ordered so I can have them available the 3rd when I need to start them. Starting to feel excited and very' date=' very nervous.[/quote']

Sept 10 also!

I have had a sore head the past 4 days, but I thing I'm just dehydrated or going through withdrawal from sugar, coffee, carbs etc. It will all be worth the pain

      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!
