I watched a gastric sleeve surgery on YouTube and now I am bit scared of the surgery. My Dr will be using the Davinci Robot to conduct the surgery. What if the electricity in the hospital goes out? What if I wake up? I ask myself these questions. Anyone want to chime in?

All hospitals have backup generators so no need to worry!

Hey guys I had surgery on Friday and it’s been tough but thanks for everyone’s support. My sleeve sister@bgrundee and I are both trying to get through first few days of post-op. Different experiences but some things very similar... please keep us in your prayers. I vlogged my surgery day and hospital stay up until release so go check it out on you tube. Here is the link to my page https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoDS8UYKi9Wu1__0j9qJ8rA?app=desktop&persist_app=1&noapp=1 You May have to copy and paste. It’s everything I could video in the raw. I will check in later trying to keep it together and get the fluids in is really tough.

      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!
