How are all the Middle East sleevers doing? I'm happy to say my weight is still dropping slowly but steadily, am down 24kgs now. My main problem now is the darn hair loss has started- I feel like I'm shedding like a dog. Aaaargh!

Are you not working?hehehe!

Im stalling but am down 105.3 now.Still drinking too much milk every day,in the tea.Playing squash twice a week,pilates reformer twice a week and still wobble like a jelly fish!

My hair seems to have stopped falling out,or less at least but I cannot see new growth.Am looking with a magnifier and no,there's nothing!What's up with that?

I wish i did my surgery with dr.Faruq so I could have gone to his support group.Need more contact with fellow losers..lol

Hows the eating going at work?

Am scheduled for surgery on December 13 with Dr. Al Taie (decided to change surgeons after meeting with Smoggy and, then, consulting with him directly. Three incisions and one drain tube are a lot better than five and two respectively, and, besides, he doesn't require a preoperative diet B) ).

Congratulations on the continued weight loss Smoggy. I thought you looked great when we met three weeks ago.

Lol - I was off school with a bug!

Wow you are going GREAT! I would love to see you!

Eating at work is fine - I wangled it so I don't have duties over lunch. Only problem is the kids must think I need fattening up or something- they keep bringing me treats like cupcakes and donuts. Mostly I pass them on but occasionally they do get past my lips!

Will call soon :)

Hi Mason, well I'm still not quite there- an inspector at work asked me if I was pregnant today! Lol - she was horrified when I said no!

I'm sure all will go well on the 13th, will pass that onto our mutual friend who has now decided on Al Noor too. ...

      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!
