Big Weekend Ahead...



Recommended Posts

This weekend is gonna be fun! It is our annual big fundraiser for the non-profit org I belong to. I will see people who saw me in Aug & Sep, right before and after my surgery, and also, people I haven't seen in a year. I have to admit, I'm looking good. Better than I have in ages, and ages. I am still waiting for some extra energy to come back but I do feel like doing more these days. It could just be that it is Fall, today is the 1st cool day outside and I do love Fall.

I have a kickass new dress made just for me and it fits perfectly my 63 lbs lighter self! I am also wearing a black & blue leather corsette that Jimmie had made for me when we first met and I haven't been able to wear it in years. I have already had to gift my daughter w/ a hot pink & black leather corsette & to a friend who has never had one, I gave my camo corsette to.

I have invested alot in clothes & leather over the years. It isn't easy to replace... I really miss my camo corsette! It was HOT! ;o) The lady I bought it from gifted me w/ a beautiful new leopard corsette. She told me it was an XL and that I should put the bag on my dresser and the day I can wear it (still too small...;o( to can send her a $100 (which is like half price...)! I can't wait!! I have a ways to go though... I'll get there! I thought that was just so sweet and such wonderful encouragement. The next time I see her I'm gonna have to buy another camo one, for sure!! :D

OK Everyone... Today is my Friday and I don't have to be back at work until Tuesday soooooooooo... Have a fabulous weekend!!! I know I will!! WooHoooooooo!!! :D

      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.

      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!
