Kids Beware!!!!!

Living in a 2 story has it's perks for kids - for example, they run around upstairs and have pretty much gotten use to US parents yelling orders to them which they never obey. Sometimes I've been met with challenges such as a child shouting back and running up the stairs knowing that I will not be behind them. Well not anymore. At 20 lbs lighter - I shocked the heck out of my 4 year old when I told him to go brush his teeth. He proceeded to run up the stairs shouting "NO MONNA, YOU BRUSH YOUR TEETH". The look on his face was priceless when he got to the top stair, turned around and was face to face with MOMMA. LOL His tune changed quickly. Needless to say I was sweating and possibly on the verge of passing out but I managed to insight fear where there use to be none. Team MOM 1 Kids O. (LOL)

That is too funny!

My kids are a great support too. My 9 year old son is a hopeless romantic. I became single again about 7 months ago (this is a good thing for me and the kids). So my son says to me last night that he is excited to help me "get skinny" because he wants me to find a new husband. I was shocked. Really? He wants me to get remarried already? Sweet kid. But, when and if I decide to marry again it won't be because I am skinny. I will always have the heavy girl mentality. Afterall, the band does not keep me from eating chocolate. The happy part is that I realized that I am doing this for me. Not so I will look good for someone else. This is about feeling healthy and having a ton of energy to play with my kids. I love that now days I outlast them!

      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.

        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!
