Wednesday surgery day for gastric sleeve



Recommended Posts

I came home on Thursday and its Saturday I've already lost another 14 lbs. I am now in onederland at 189 lbs. Haven't seen onederland since about 8 years ago. I love my sleeve, it was easy, no complications, no distress just loving my new appetite never thought this would really come true.

I had Aetna Better health and I'm disabled so I'm on Medicaid thru Aetna they paid everything except the nut dr visits first visit was 30.00, and the other five 15.00 each, and you need a clearfast drink carbohydrate the night before surgery and one two hours before, they cost 20.00

      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!
