Hahaha, thank you ladies! You're right Robin, I just now remember how much I love drinking and candy lol. I also feel like I can eat a lot more than I should be able to. But...I still cant eat like I could before which was the point. =)

You look great girl!! I'm glad you are doing what you have to do remind yourself where you where and how far you've come. I love candy too, so I can understand the struggle. You do look like a completely different person really. Keep your old pants because soon you'll be able to fit two legs in one pants leg. You're stomach almost looks flat now! Keep up the amazing work! We're here to support you in your journey!!!!:D

FANTASTIC JOB working your sleeve. Even if you eat things not healthy for you, get back to your basics, remember the sleeve is your tool not the total answer to your new healthy body. You can do this. You are not alone, we are here for your support and praise. The pictures are great.

      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!
