Yes, it's happening to me. Never had acne in my life ... Even as a teenager. Very frustrating

Braking out a little??? I wish, I have always had a few pimples going on but now I am a war zone, they itch and never come to a head, just liquid in them, I know this is disgusting but what can I say??? Any suggestions? I heard somewhere that as my fat cells are shrinking, their are hormones in the fat cells and everything gets messed up???

I'm 7 weeks out and started getting acne all over my face last week. Its bad especially around my chin. That's weird that this happens. Glad I found that I'm not the only one.

Me too, my whole neck is groady. Losing my hair and breaking out, it's chemo all over again.

My skin has improved, I bought some Retinol Cream and dried those pimples up in just a few days, otherwise they were there for two weeks.

Where do you get Retinol from?

      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!
