We'll today is last day of liquid diet. Tomorrow is clear liquid only. Mon 5:15am time to be at hospital, surgery 7:30am. Getting excited yet there is a little fear of the unknown just around the corner. It's been a long journey to get here, and I am looking forward to a thinner me to be in a new phase for my life.

I was excited & fearful, but knew I wanted to be thinner & healthier. So glad I got sleeved. Been a very positive journey for me. Nov 7 will be 1 year post op & I'm down 72 lbs& loving it. Follow your doctors rules & you'll do well.

Good luck to all of you! Im 7.5 weeks out, and already can't believe Im almost 2 mos. out. The first month was hell for me, but now Im back to work, working out, eating more normal and absolutely loving life. I played today with my nieces, nephews, and son in the pool chasing them for hours and I wasn't tired. You guys made the right choice, and you're all on your way to a new :)

      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!
