NOW I know what ONE-DERLAND is!



Recommended Posts

What a feeling! I stood on the scale at about midnight Saturday and yelled for my fiance. He jumped out of bed thinking something was wrong! Poor guy was sound asleep...but this was BIG! I was giggly and happy and bouncy (not enough to make the scale not read though...lol) I was 199. BETTER even...I made him stand on it and he was 200!!! I FINALLY WEIGH LESS!!! Today I was 198 and I'm hoping for 197 tomorrow! Woo hoo. I like this 1/2 pound a day speed...I'm just afraid it will end soon and I'll hit that wall...the stall...and be sooo sad! I will enjoy this and worry about a stall when it happens...I hope I get a few more weeks of this though...yippie!!!!

Oh and NSV. Pt says to my practices other nurse, "I just love this office. Everyone is so wonderful. I was taken care of by the best 2 nurses...(about her) you're just so nice and she (about me) is so sweet and so pretty! ME>>>she called me pretty. Its silly but it really was a nice feeling!

SLEEVED April 12th - 242 lbs

Next goal - 4th of July challange hope to be 185lbs (still have 13lbs to lose...will I make it???)

Well, honestly...I ate 3 oz of asparagus tonight...got SEARING pain in my stomach then vomited the asparagus and bright red blood. Called my surgeon...he said double the omeprazole and let him know if it happens again. Im a little worried, but it doesn't seem like he is....so again, Im in wait & see mode....sigh.

PS...obviously I am not the 'norm'...lol, if it can happen, it happens to me! :) This is a crazy ride, this sleeve! Onderland is a nice place to live though :)

Woohoooo!!

PS - my surgeon specifically said "DON'T EAT ASPARAGUS." It is one of the most fibrous & hardest to digest veggies. As long as you don't have ongoing symptoms, it was probably just an asparagus thing. Don't let it taint your AWESOME MILESTONE ;) Just back off on the ultra-Fiber veggies til later :)

      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!
