I'm back into size 28 jeans!! It was stretch pants for a while there! It might not sound like much, but when you're a heavyweight, it takes about 20 lbs to go down a size.

Way to go, Donna! Hopefully the next size will go even faster. I am only down 1 size in about 40 lbs., so I know what you mean it seems to take forever when you're bigger.

I'm a heavyweight too so I get how awesome this feels, yay! For my body it is nearly 40 pounds between sizes, when I go from a 24 to an 18, a mere 4 sizes smaller, I will have lost over 100 pounds.:001_huh:

Ditto. I have lost 65 lbs since April (sleeved 8/12) I started out a 32, and am now hovering between 28 and 30 depending on the cut. Seems to take forever at the higher weights. But, for the first time in my life I am hopeful that this will help me get to goal and stay there.

      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!
