My rollercoster weight gain and loss



Recommended Posts

I started 2 gain weight when father passed at 7 years old before then I was skinnier than every kid in the family!! After 7 each year I gained weight! When I was 14 I started 2 go on a diet and by the I was in the 10 grade I had got down 2 160lbs Iam not sure how much I lost because I was scared 2 get on the scale even now!!! After that I fell of the wagon and since then that's been pretty much my life!! I am getting sleeved march 15th with Dr Almanza!!! And I am so ready! I am not afraid 2 travel 2 Mexico bcuz I have already been there last year I got a TT and lipo!! When I was there everyone was asking me why I did not get the sleeve and at the time u could not pay me 2 get it I was happy with my TT and lipo! But when I was there one of the doc had the sleeve done and he was going just fine and he was not even FAT!! So I started 2 think! I'm tired of losing and gaining and I want 2 break the cycle so am getting it done and can't wait!!! If anybody else is getting the sx done in Mexico let me know my email is livechristy@live.com!

      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!
