I am getting married July 30. We didn't have a long engagment, so as soon as I got engaged I went and bought a wedding dress, size 14. Back then I thought that was pretty good because wedding dresses run very small, and at that point I was a size 14/16 in clothes.... so I figured I'd lose some weight, possibly have to take it in, but it'd be fine.

Well, I was having wedding dress remorse (it was "blush" aka pink) and decided to pop into a small dress shop on my way home from work. The woman asked me what size I am and I told her probably a 12 or 14 depending on the style. She looked at me and said "Are you sure? You don't look like a 12/14". So I just let her grab a bunch of dresses for my to try on.

I FIT IN A SIZE 8!!!!!!!!!! Granted it was a corset back and pretty snug, but OMG. I walked out of that shop with the BIGGEST smile. And a problem.... I was trying to find a cheap dress to replace my pink one.

Well, I went to the shop where I got the pink dress and explained my situation to the saleswoman who was SO nice. She let me do an even exchange and the dress fits me so I don't have to pay for many alterations! Never in a million years did I think I would be wearing a size 8, mermaid style dress (I had always gone for a-line bigger stuff that flatters big hips!).

Here is a pic in my original size 8 inspiration dress.... although it is gorgeous I couldn't afford it :( But I got something similar :)

      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!
