Hmmmm let's see. Well I reached my goal at 9 months out (150) and dropped 6 more lbs after that...at 1 year post op I was at 145. At 14 months post op I dropped to 144 without trying, and it scared me a little because I had reached the goals I had set for myself (fit in my wedding dress and obtain a normal BMI) and was happy with that, and didn't really want to get any lower. So I started adding more calories/fat to my diet and was able to stay within the 5 lb fluctuation. These last few months I seem to be hanging more at 147-148.

So to answer your question, I lost 1 lb after 1 year post op (without trying).

No offense taken what so ever! I agree I do look different LOL! Thank you! I didn't recognize myself for over a decade. I would see me in the mirror and see my eyes but not recognize me :(...it's good to be back :)

I can't wait to get ack there too. Down 40 lbs since my March surgery, have 60 to go. I've been in huge stall so hearing success stories is what helps keep me motivated. I agree with the others, you were pretty before and you are pretty after, but now you look so happy and healthy. I cannot wait for to be there with you. Great success story. Thanks for sharing.

      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!
