Thanks NTA I really appreciate you tuning in! I try my best to talk straight but I get so nervous and think I sound stupid!! I'm so glad I quit smoking and it feels so good to be able to breathe again! My dad is doing a ton better and hes quit smoking for almost 3 weeks now!

I am feeling a ton better for sure and I feel better than ever and have a smile on my face all the time! I have gotten a lot of stares and man you look good!! in the past few weeks and it just motivates me to do more. I'll be 4 weeks post op this Tuesday!! The biggest things that have motivated me is watching other peoples journeys on YouTube and just looking back at how I was in the past 7+ years. I also want to run a 5k at some point and I have started the training last week.

You just need to find the time if you live a pretty busy lifestyle! Just start out slow and then work your way up and don't try to overdo it!!

I kept a diary from prelap band and I enjoy going back and reading it and seeing what I felt. I need to write in it more. Don't it feel great to be on the other side?? I just need to get started with the exercise part! These last 50 pounds might prove to be quite stubborn to get off!

Yeah I was thinking about keeping a blog but I would rather talk about it lol. Yeah it feels awesome and its going to nothing but positive things in the future!

I was going to mention that you need to have a email account to subscribe to me on youtube. If you have an email address (I'm assuming you do!) and just create an account on youtube and then just go to my channel and click subscribe!

      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!
