Hi everyone I'm also looking to get sleeved this august still haven't decided what doctor I want but for sure I'm getting in august . I am 30 yrs old with 2 beautiful daughter.

I'm a little confused . . . if you haven't decided on a doctor yet, have you completed all the preparatory tests, visits with a nutritionist, group meetings, psych and cardiac and other clearances? I'm just wondering how you can be certain it'll happen in August?

Yes I have done all that's with my doctor here in Orlando, FL. I am a also self pay which I been doing some research and was reading about Mexico so now I'm totally confused . I know my family will be against me having it done in Mexico.

Oh, okay, I understand. Most of the things I've read on here have been very positive about the experience of getting it done in Mexico. I hope you can come to a decision that will make you and your family both comfortable. Good luck!

My consult with the surgeon is scheduled for the 31st of July. Unless my surgeon schedules me closer to the four-week mark than the six-week mark, I'm going to be a September sleever. :(

My surgery is scheduled for August 21st which is pretty awesome because it is just not long after my birthday. I am a mix of excited because I have waited for so long, but also nervous as this is my first major surgery.

I'm scheduled for August 21 as well!

      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!
