Hey guys, Tuesday the 5th was my 46th birthday. Guess what I went and did? YUP got me a tattoo, my FIRST one. I LOVE IT!!

My grandfather always planted Sunflowers when he moved into a new house. So I got one put on my foot to help ground me.

Here is one of me getting the tattoo. Then one of the guy who did it. Then the actual tattoo.

Nice tat Penni! Happy birthday too.

I love it! My son is in the Coast Guard, making a career of it. When he first got in, he got several tattoos....and they were not small, on his back and calves. I hated them and have teased him unmercifully. I have grown to like them though, but have not let up on the teasing.

When I get closer to goal, I'm going to have a butterfly done on my upper "hiney" and surprise EVERYONE.

Your sunflower is adorable. I want to see a picture of you whole lower leg so I can get the full picture. 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!
