Finally! I'm 7 lbs away from weighing what I did in 2004 when I had an emergency hysterectomy and put on a lot of weight after surgery. I'm setting a goal for that number then my next goal is my goal weight. Lovin my band, best decision I've ever made for myself and my health.

There you go! You're doing awesome! I've been reading your posts and know your desire....can "hear" it in the words you write. It just takes time to gel with different restriction levels. But YOU ARE doing it! Congrats and keep it up.... :)

I get to visit my home state Saturday...The Kentucky Derby!! And thinking I'll be in Madisonville in a couple of weeks to visit my sister, and probably visit the old farm in Greenville too. Many good memories of western KY.

welcome home catfish, welcome home! Don't go to Madisonville much but as you know I'm in Hoptown. I usually head south either to Clarksville or Nashville and on occassion will head to Evansville IN for shopping trips so I do pass thru Madisonville. Hope you have a wonderful trip home and thank you for the kind and encouraging words.

      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!
