SURGERY TOMORROW !!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Can't believe tomorrow is the big day...I'm feeling so many emotions right now....my life will have a new start tomorrow...I'm ready for my body to match my brain....it's funny because I've never felt the way I look...I've always felt sexy and beautiful and then I look at my body and it doesn't match...which I've always been told I was curvy and I have a pretty face...but I want to take back control of my body....I'm to young to waste any more years being unhappy...I want to eat healthy and only to fuel my body...not to eat to Celebrate or because I'm sad or happy or as a part of fellowship....if you think about it we use food for everything....having a baby ? Let's eat..getting married ? Let's eat...got a promotion ? Let's eat...bored ? Let's eat !! I am choosing to be the best me that I can be !!! Saying many prayers for myself and all you guys...my anxiety is thru the roof but that's just me :-) so here's to having nothing to eat or drink after midnight....ahh surgery eve !!!!!!!!

I feel the same way. I always tell people I have the opposite of anorexia and think I'm smaller than I am. Lol for example at 235lbs I did a cartwheel the other day and couldn't figure out why I couldn't lift my arm an hour later until I really thought about it. All that weight on one arm is no bueno. I can't wait to do cartwheels without hurting myself. Lol anyway I'm very excited for you. Let us know how you do!

Good luck on your new YOU. It has been great for me. I lost 24 so far and am doing very good on food choices. Just make sure you get enough Protein. That is very helpful when you don't want to feel hungry. I have 3 Protein Drinks a day between meals. It really does work.

Good luck. You will be great. When I am not eating around other people I tell them. " I already ate". They think I ment an hour ago. I know I ate in the 70's, 80's,90's and most of this century.

YOu deserve to be happy. Go for it!

      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'. ???

      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!
