I should clarify; Had a band in 2010 and getting a revision to sleeve on 9/21.

Yep September 5 for me. I had a band in years ago that caused me nothing but trouble so that was removed in an emergency op about 5 years ago and now I'm going with the sleeve.

I loved my band and lost over 100 pounds but a couple of years ago I started getting horrible GERD so they removed all of the Fluid from my band, and then Covid hit so I couldn't go to the gym and I've put back on 40 pounds and I'm miserable. They're going to remove the band and hopefully do the sleeve in the same surgery.

How frustrating. I hope it all goes well for you from here on.

      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!
