Are you just considering the sleeve, or other wls? The forum is filled with Q&A's which helped me a lot with all my doubts. So feel free to ask away!

I'm considering the sleeve, it seems better suited for me. I've been checking online and I found this website and I'm glad I did. Where are you in your journey, if you don't mind me asking?

I am half way through my 14 day pre-op liquid diet (day#8) and scheduled for the sleeve next Tues April 4th!! I'm super excited :D

At the beginning of my journey I was set on getting the Lap Band, and after all the research and talking to people who've done the sleeve I just thought it be a better option for me so then I changed my mind and now I am doing the sleeve.

      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!
