Oh Sweet Onderland!!!!



Recommended Posts

I've finally hit onderland, just so happy my starting weight was 263 I had my surgery 4/25/12. I'm down 67 lbs. today I am 196. I haven't quite decide if I want to stop at 150 or go to 144, the goal weight my dr set. I guess I just have to wait and see what I look like. Just so excited I can't wait! I've been heavy for the majority of my life and it feels soon good to be shedding this fat! I just hope and pray that once its gone its gone!

Congratulations! That has to be a great feeling! I still have quite a ways to go but am looking forward to what the future holds! I was 320 pre-surgery and am now 290. At this point I can't imagine what under 200 looks and feels like!! Once again, great job and you are really an inspiration to people like me!

      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!
