6 months, 52 pounds gone! Pics~



Recommended Posts

Celebrating 6 months since surgery this month and wanted to share my first set of pics. I CAN NOT believe I'm posting these, but I'm starting to feel more comfortable with myself and decided to just do it! What a difference 52 pounds makes!! I looked like the marshmallow girl and didn't even realize it!!! lol! The first pic is at my starting weight of 299 before surgery. Then the 2nd pic is 3 months in and the last is 6 months and weighing 247. :)

you look awesome, keep it up. I need to post pics of me I guess, embarrassed to. We are the same heigth and were about the same weight, I was 294 when I started June 13 and I'm down 53 lbs as of today, 7 mos out. I see my surgeon this Thurs hopefully for a fill.

Keep up the good work.

My gallery pic is not the before pic I messed that up, that pic was taken in Oct, somehow my before pic got erased or replaced with the October one. duh. lol.

      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!
