Looking for surgery sisters in phoenix



Recommended Posts

I'm looking as well. I was trying to find people who wanted a more personal connection outside of a hospital setting with consistent strangers. I'm all new to this myself,i have noticed since surgery it's hard to relate to people now lol.

Hi! I was sleeved June 6th, 2016. I went through the Bridges program at St. Luke's Medical Center and Dr. Juarez was my surgeon. Best experience ever! I'm feeling great :)

My surgery is on Thursday. been so busy getting everything at home/work in order. Had my preop appointment today at St Luke's. Everyone was great but wasn't the most fun I have ever had. Well it's a small price to pay for a new life. So

So Dr Juarez is you doc. so when do you start the liquid diet? are you going to be drinking Bariatric Advantage?

Yay!!! Only a couple of days to have your sleeve! I'm 10 weeks post-op. My pre-op diet was only a week because my BMI was 35 with several commorbities. I got the BA shake, coffee flavor. It was really good but after surgery I couldn't drink it anymore, so I did muscle milk or premier Protein.

      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!
