First off let me begin by saying I live with my 74 yr old mom yes partially because she needs me but mostly because I got divorced a yr and half ago and had nowhere to go at the time so I moved in with her 7 mos ago. Ok, on to my happy choice. The other night she was on the phone and I overheard her telling someone "yea I bought these blond oreo's with birthday icing filling with sprinkles" and I blurted out "MOM!" "You didn't tell me, how could you?" She laughed and said oh I hid them from you, we both cracked up. Ok moving on to today, after lunch today I wanted something so bad that was sweet, she got up and got herself 2 Cookies and I opted to have fresh cherries and they were oh so good too. I was so proud that I didn't cave in and eat a cookie and even better I didn't feel deprived or tempted.

Happy choice today!

bahaha, you all, I did tell her shame on her. She finally brought them out of hiding and put them in the pantry but I told her if I never try one I won't know what I'm missing and believe me I'm sure I would like them because I love birthday cake icing and I love the regular blond oreos so I told her NO WAY was I gona eat one. Indulged on 1/4 cup of skinny cow ice cream tonight, it was yummy. I see my surgeon tomorrow for a fill, thank goodness as I need the restriction and I can't remember how much I've lost since last month so I'm anxious to see what the verdict is. Not looking forward to getting out tomorrow as it is to be bitter cold and ice is moving in tomorrow night but ready for a fill tomorrow.

      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.

      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!
