Hi I am in S.A. had vs on 16 of April 14. I am 6 weeks out. Life has changed I was doing good til I started on mushy food. Then I could not tell if I ate to much so it is up to me with Portion Control. I thought I would know when from the surgery . Just my luck.

Hey guys. I was sleeve 4-21-14 by Dr. Duperier at Foundation Hospital. All is well except that I have been stalled since I started regular food. Bleh. (Dr. D is dr. Segers partner!)

I am also from San Antonio. I had my surgery(sleeve) in 12/29. At Methodist Speciality and Transplant. I'm on a soft diet and trying new foods. Feel like I'm doing well.

I'm in SA and I was sleeved 08.09.16. I see this is an old thread, maybe some one who got it years ago will reply with their progress?

I was sleeved 7/12at the Nix. So far so good. LxA, how are you doing so far? I lost about 25 lbs the first month. That includes weight loss from pre op diet. I weigh every two weeks. Feeling terrific, no complications and easy recovery thus far. Actually my doctor says I am fully recovered so it's focusing on the post diet for the next several months. From your numbers it seems like you are doing fantastic!

I'm OK 23 lbs down the pass 3 weeks (pre-op diet and now post-op life). No complications bit mild nausea because of gas/acid - indigestion. Apparently it's not usual, but I'm avoiding eating bc of the nausea, fluids are good though. Waiting for tomorrow so I can call my doc to see what kind of antacids I can take.

      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!
