Welcome! I'm in the beginning stages of a required 3 month diet, which will end in mid-September. I'm hoping to have a surgery date in late October/early November. I'll also be getting the sleeve :)

I’m new here and scheduled for surgery September 16th..anyone else scheduled for the month of September? Looking for sleeve buddies 😀

Hi Parris! I too am new and while I've not been given a surgery date I have asked that my surgeon try to get my in no later than September; I am aiming for late August but they said if they can't meet that deadline than sometime in September it is. I can't have it done any later than September due to my work so fingers crossed I get a date soon :D

      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!
