It has been a while since I have posted anything! But for anyone who has seen my posts or knows of my name, I have an update!

I have lost 71.4 lbs and I am finally UNDER 200 LBS!

I went to the Dr on Thursday, No Adjustment for me! I still only have 2 cc's in my 11 cc band! I have great restriction and I am too tight around my period time and in the mornings.

I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast every morning! Small lunch and dinner, and yougarts or cheese sticks for Snacks.< /p>

Dr's extremely happy with my progress and states I am doing better than MOST bypass patients! How great does that make me feel!

I was in a size 24, now I fit comfortably in a size 18, I can squeeze into a 16 and button them, but still a bit tight! I went from a size 26-28 shirt to a 16-18!!! I feel amazing!

AND....I can actually cross my legs like a lady when I sit!

Well, if you are on blogger, follow me and read up on my journey! I can follow you as well if you are new!

Take care,

Mandy

      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!
