My surgery date is June 7th. I am taking a week and a half off (my surgery is scheduled for a Wednesday). I am super excited and extremely nervous. I'm afraid of failure.

My surgery is set for 6/5/17

Anyone wanna be sleeve buddies?

I'm on 25 more days of liquid diet emoji31.png

Weigh in on 5/9

Hi, I would love to be your sleeve buddy! My new surgery date is June 7th! My first date was May 9th but when my surgeon wasn't able to do it because my liver didn't shrink enough. So I've been on a liquid diet since April 29th. I am so sick of chicken broth! 😉 Right now I'm drinking 3 to 4 Premier Protein shakes & all the delicious Water I want lol! My treat is SF Popsicles & SF Jello.

      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!
