silly success yet again...



Recommended Posts

well, being a bigun this time last year and being in the winter you learned to do (without) such as panty hose...

heck, i didnt even fit into the largest ones at Walmart (no matter how hard i stretched those bad boys).......nothing like seeing your old man run down hall with them on his head being octopus man......but that is another story...

even ordered them online (some fit, some did not) so just gave up....

so flash forward to now..

went to walmart and bought some....yeah they are queen size but heck...i got them on. i am wearing them today underneath my black pencil skirt

they fit

they fit

but my diamond engagement ring just nicked them and i am fretting now as i dont want no run...

OHHHHH just when i was having a good day.......

but that is another one of my silly success stories...being able to buy hose in a store.

I don't wear panty hose during the summer, but when I go to church in fall and winter, I get them because I don't like to be cold! Yes, even here in central Florida. A body gets used to the heat and when we lose weight, its cold!!!Thanks for the NSV!

CG, I know this may sound crazy, but I found something that works for me when putting pantyhose on, I take a little bit of hand/body lotion and rub a little on my legs and on my hands and the pantyhose seem to slip up nicely withouth getting snagged or having that lovely 'electric' shock ... Yes take off the rings before putting the hoses on, I had ripped so many in my day ..

Congrats on your NSV!!!

      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!
