Hey Skinnygirl....

Can you believe that it's almost two years? As of today i have lost 80lbs. I started at 223 and today i weighed in at 143, but i fluctuate from 140-143. Beginning size was 18-20 and now i'm at a size 6-8. Shirt size was 2xl, now i'm at a large... my bra size started at 44G and now i'm at a 36FFF. oh... and my feet have shrunk too.....hehe... was a 71/2-8.... now 6 1/2 - 7.

Enough about sizes..... i would sell my soul to the devil for a tummy tuck....lol All in all i feel great and i'm so glad i did LB. having a few other issues, but on the relationship end...

      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.

      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!
