I see you've made it Viki, congrats. I'm very happy for you too. If you can remember, you and I were both

(were both)in the same boat. You've gone through with your hopes and I'm still holding onto hope.

Thats what I would like, but one Dr is talking sleeve and the other is talking RNY. with the sleeve, it will take 6 months. With RNY I think sooner(maybe at the same time).

I was going to do the sleeve but my doctor said to do the gastric faster weight loss (not by much)

So happy for you! I am one-week post-op today and trying to have a narcotic-free day. So far so good but will probably do morphine tonight if I'm this uncomfortable when I go to bed. Haven't lost much but am okay with that for now. Keep on, everyone!

      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!
