Got Sleeved this morning. Everything went really well. Had a lot of pain when I got to my room. It has gotten better as the day progresses it has become less and less. Walked 20 minutes after I got to room and now have done 6 1/2 laps and about to call it a night. Pain meds have been helpful. The swabs they have me to moisten my mouth have been very helpful. Got up by myself about an hour ago so pain and flexibility are much better. Tomorrow is the leak test and then I have to hold down 8oz of Water and once those are done I am headed home!Image1499402252.330497.jpg

I was one of the lucky ones, I only had pain from my incisions. nothing else. Keep walking and walking too, I would only suggest when you get home to sip, sip, sip everything you drink during the liquid phase. you probably won't have a lot of energy the first few days. I think when you start eating real food again your energy level will take off, at least mine did. GOOD LUCK! and have a speedy recovery

      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!
