:dance: Thank you..

You must feel so good losing all that weight:clap2:

So u have lost likle 10 pounds a month? sounds good to me..

I was at the dr's office the weight was 261 with shoes got home and I was 257 without shoes like this better:p it's a new digital scale my daughter bought for me for my journey..:nervous

I am so excited I cannot believe it..I am glad I live in Massaschusetts it sounds like we have more support then other cities like NY some strange stories I have read on another site..

We really get alot of support from each other on the sites then we kind of do in person at times...last support group I want to there was a man that was really being a jerk and too bad she didn't throw him out..

But besides all this experience is positive for me I wish to be around for while:girl_hug:

I will keep in touch with this group on my awaited journey..:)

      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.

        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!
