Six months since surgery equals...

ONEDERLAND!!!

I was banded 11-10-10, so technically yesterday was my 6 month anniversary, but I wasn't yet at onederland. So I'm rationalizing that today's weight was a resulted of yesterday's work. However you look at it, I'm counting it. ;)

That means 40 pounds lost from my highest and 25 pounds lost since surgery. I could have lost more, bhadj had some other medical complications keeping me from exercising and losing for two months. Either way, I'm not in a race and am just thrilled to be in onederland. I feel like me again and have so much more confidence! My foster daughter, who doesn't know about the band, keeps telling me that it looks like I've lost a lot of weight...good kid. I love my band!

It really does feel great. I weighed in again today and still saw that beautiful #1. It's just great knowing that never again will I ever weigh over 200 pounds!

It's good to "meet" you. How has your progress been? Are you liking your band? Good restriction makes a huge difference. I didn't have any until this last month.

      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'. ???

      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.

      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!
