March 2016 sleevers ????



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

I received some bad news today. I fell the Sunday before MLK Day and my foot/leg has been bothering me. Today I went to see an orthopedic surgeon and found out I have ruptured my Achilles' tendon and fx my heel bone. I have to have surgery to fix this and it is scheduled for Monday. Unfortunately, this is the exact day I was scheduled for my sleeve. My sleeve has now been rescheduled for march 21...

Sorry to hear hopefully you have a speedy recovery

I got my date today March 1st I'm excited

Hi all!

I'm new here (first post!) and I've just secured an official surgery date for March 24th. At little nervous about it (okay, REALLY nervous!) just because surgery can be scary.

But also because my husband and I have a 3-year-old and she is our world. Just want everything to go well and know that I'm doing this not only for me, but for her.

I'm tempted to change my date to the 31st so I can spend one last Easter with her without being in recovery mode. But, we'll see if I can still be up for being an observer even if it's via a wheelchair.

Looking forward to becoming an active member in the forums!

      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'. ???

      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!
