Who is your surgeon? I'm getting sleeved on the 30th with Dr Illan. I'm getting nervous as well. I keep thinking that maybe this is a little to drastic.

Sorry. Quoted above but messed up. I'm 9/28. Nervous, but everyday when I wake up I think "you're about to start a whole new stage of your life!" Scary, but exciting!!!

Hey sleeve date buddy! Like you I'm nervous as hell having never had a surgery and my mind is bouncing back and forth wondering should I do it, should I just diet again. Let's face it though that hasn't worked for me so why postpone this opportunity. Today walking by a surf shop thinking of all the clothes and activities I used to be able to do and wear. I think the positives way outnumber the negatives. I just need someone to hit me in the head the morning of and get this over with.

Every time I get anxious about the surgery while I'm at work, I go climb the stairs and think about how it will feel walk up lighter without pulling in the handrail! Starting the preop diet on Wed. Definitely feeling real at this point!

      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!
