December Sleeve?



Recommended Posts

I'm feeling really good about that date. I basically was allowed to hand pick my date! I wanted to feel good enough to enjoy Christmas Day and it will allow me to have three weeks off yet only use five sick days (work in the schools).

Where are you located @@DaisyAmy? I'm located in Tennessee. I selected my date as well. My surgeon only does the procedure on Mon and Tues. I considered my time off as well. I do not work in the school system but we have scheduled holidays and floating holidays during that time so I should use around 8 days of my vacation so I will be off work until the beginning of the year.

I was in Michigan two weeks ago (Ann Arbor). I wish you the best and let's stay in touch my sleeve sister!

Ditto, @@Cutepretty1! It'll be nice to have someone to go through this "together". We were in TN this summer -Gatlinburg area. I have a friend who lives in Chattanooga. Love Nashville. My dad's side of the family was from the Culleoka area. I have a fondness for TN!

I just received my surgery date - my VSG will be December 8th, 2015. I was approved by insurance last week. I hope these 8 weeks go by quickly!

While I'd love to have surgery tomorrow, I am grateful to have it done in December so I can start 2016 off with a BANG.

I am scheduled for December 9th, which is three days after finals for me. I'm excited and nervous at the same time...but like fatcinderellasball, I think it will be great to start the new year off with a bang!

      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!
