I'm having surgery at New York Presbyterian 1/5/15 with Dr. Bagloo. She is so nice!! And the office workers too Josie and Ivy! They submitted my papers and got a approval a week later. So far I'm happy with my decision

I had my surgery done on 09/02/14 at st. Lukes with Dr. Koshy. I also work in a different hospital and choose him. Know several people that had it done with him also. I highly recommend him. Since surgery lost 60 lbs.

Sorry so late, been going through a lot. My body is having a hard time adjusting to my sleeve :( Been in the hospital about 4 times after my surgery. Now have a feeding tube in my tummy. But You decide everything the type of surgery and the surgeon.

Ohsonique so sorry to hear that, whats going on? Why they had to put a feeding tube?

I had a blood infection before. I have a feeding tube now to get my nutrients because before I couldn't keep anything down. Kept throwing up. My body is just having a hard time adjusting back.

      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!

        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.

      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!
