Recommended Posts

I am unfortunately joining you lot for jan sleeve.

My surgery was for dec 18 but I got called on dec 17 to say it was cancelled (after 4 long liquid only weeks...)

So I got moved to... jan 22nd. Another 5 week to be really strict but no more liquid diet,

So in total I will have 9 pre-op diet week. On a positive note I am loosing weight. presently lost 22lbs since nov 20th.

My Surgery will be end of January or beginning of Feb. I will find out on Jan. 9th when it gets scheduled. I lowered my deductible for this surgery. I am excited but the more forums I read the scarier it becomes. I think we all handle it differently and I hope my body does well!

My sleeve is set for January 2nd. It's Christmas Day and I plan to stick to my pre-surgery diet even though it will be hard.




You are not alone. My surgery date is also 1/2/18. I am trying very hard to stick with the plan! Good luck to you!

My surgery is scheduled for Jan. 9th. It has been a long process. BCBS California required six months of medical weight management, plus the usual EKG stress test, psychological evaluation, endoscopy, colonoscopy, etc.

I get tired just thinking of all the hoops I’ve had to jump through. But we got approval and I am scheduled at last!

      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!
