I get the plus size catalogs still, and get great pleasure out of throwing them in the trash!! The funny thing to me is that the models in the catalogs are not even close to plus sized, so where do they get their clothes??? LOL!!!

Congratulations!

You are about to find out that there's 4 times the amount of stuff in the misses department. Shopping takes much longer, when there's a lot to try on. It's a sacrifice, but I'm sure you'll manage somehow!

Now, go spend some money...

Amen sister, I had to move over from the big "W" recenlty, wow it takes a long time to shop now.

A funny aside. My DD ws about 7 at the time, she has wide feet so she knew her shoe size had a w with it or don't even ask me for them. Anyway, she was with me shopping and I found something I liked but couldn't find it in my size, well, she found one and she says, "look I found a 24 wide" So I tell her it stands for "womens sizes" however I get where she was coming from and my butt is wide--thanks to my band it is not as wide!

      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!
