A little over 3 months post-op and I hit my first goal this morning with a total loss of 50 lbs (20 pre-surg, 30 post). It's coming off verrrrrry slowly, but I don't mind any more. This is the most I've ever lost in one go-round and it's so uplifting to know that these pounds will never, ever come back! Ordered a Fitbit this morning as my reward. Now I'm ready to start on the next 50!

Starting weight: 274

Size 22W/24W Bottom, 1-2X Top

Current weight: 224

Size 16W Bottom, M-L Top

Fantastic. What a difference! I have a Fitbit (got one for me, my husband and my sister). My husband and I use it to "compete" against one another! It's really got him moving, and I find myself doing more exercise too, just to stay ahead of him!

Great work! Keep it up!

You look fantastic. You were really pretty in your pre-op heavier photo too. I love your hair.

I just hit my 50 lb milestone and am about 3 months out as well. Feels great. Congratulations!!

      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!
