Hello! I'm a fairly new convert & getting sleeved in Mexico in about 2 weeks. Just Looking to see if there's any faith-based support out there. Have a great day!

HI there, not sure about the support as I am new here myself. Just wanted to say my brother and his daughter both went to Mexico and had the sleeve done with no complications. Both are losing weight and doing well.

Not that I know of, I hadn't thought to ask. There might be a few of us on here. I'm LDS too!

Exciting! Which surgery are you going for? How are you feeling about the upcoming surgery?

I had rny March 31st of 2016. (10 months today.) I'm down about 130 from surgery and about 140 from highest. It has been a crazy journey but a good one.

Hi there, I'm LDS also[emoji4]. I was sleeved in September last year. 6 months out and I've lost 90 lbs! My birthday is March 23 and I'm hoping to be down 100lbs. But if I don't I'm ok with it. Best decision I ever made. I still have a long way to go, but on the right track. Good luck to everyone. I'm from northern Utah and I'm sick of winter!!! Today the sun is shining and it feels so great[emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

      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!
