Down 50 lbs since surgery 4/26 and 63 total since March 1 (when i was at my highest weight ever)

So for the last two months, ive lost 5 lbs each month. I cant complain I suppose, but I really need to change some things that I know I am still doing wrong, so I can get that closer to 7 or 8 lbs a month.

I am very excited tho, that I have gone down another size in both my tops and bottoms...and I also bought my first pair of jeans in over 10 yrs, and I must say, I look DAMN GOOD in them lol. Ok, well i wasnt sure I did, but I have had tons of compliments when I wore them, so I guess it must be true lol.

I hope everyone is having much success, and if you are hitting a bump in the road, DONT GIVE UP! You can get through this, it may not be easy, but it is POSSIBLE!

The pics below are two days before surgery, (white shirt) and 11/21 (jeans and purple shirt)

That is wonderful and you are looking great. I know the feeling and excitement when you do something you have not been able to do in years.

Keep up the good work. Are you exercising at all?

I am, but i know i can be doing more..everytime i have a good week where i go to the gym at least 3 times...the next week something keeps me from going, like this week, im down with a sinus infection and have fever for 2 days...another time i hurt my ankle..so its always something. i def know what i need to do to kick it up, its just a matter of DOING IT~

      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!
