This is the first time I have gone through my clothes since I began my journey. A friend of my mom's daughter has been running clothes and items up to NY and NJ so I decided to donate all my big clothes. It is a shame no one talks about them anymore but truth is a lot of people are really hurting and I am happy to donate my clothes. I absolutely did not even know that I had so much..

I give my clothes to lady at my church. She has been struggling financially and really needed clothes.

I am not sad actually I feel great about it. I had got to the point where I just bought 4pairs of the same back elastic pants. Also had no idea I had so many clothes. I am keeping the first pair of jeans I fit into which are huge. When I need a reminder how far I have Come I put them on. I am really happy that I have the opportunity to help others as others have helped me. The Karma effect.

      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.

      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!
