I was just about to unsubscribe from the emails, but saw that there is a local group coming to my neck of the woods. (Insert shock face here.) I had my surgery 6 years ago and really got down to a good weight. When I moved here 3 years ago I had an issue and ended up getting all my Fluid out. Partly my fault since I felt I had managed so well. My weight has inched back up. :-( I went to a doctor recently for fills, saw him for 4 months and got two of the tiniest fills ever before he closed up his practice and sent me a bill. It was such a waste not to mention discouraging. Now I'm over it though and am seriously considering going to another doctor and would love to see who in the area is recommended and join your group.

Would love to attend the group as well. I had my sleeve a little over 2 years ago, lost about 120lbs. and was doing great til a took a new and stressful job about a year ago and put on 30lbs. I have taken off about 23lbs of that now and still working at it but could use the support. Look forward to seeing all of you.

I am putting it on my calendar. My oldest son leaves for a year of studying abroad on the 18th, and this will be a great distraction. :)

I am one year post op this month! Excited to go to the doctor on Monday. I don't feel like I have lost as much as some others, but I try really hard not to compare myself.

      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!
