You look great.. I too started at 238. My survery is not until January 2013 :-( seems so far away. But I look foward to having the surgery. Loose skin was a concern of mine, but if I end up with a little loose skin, I will be ok with that. You are truly an inspiration. Thank you for showing us some pictures. :-)

Thanks I was back an forth like I said I knew I was wondering my self what end result would be I know drinking the protien gets old but y'all keep that up it is what keeps uR muscle mass the only thing I think I would have done. Different is exercise more at first I really didn't do it like I should have but I do now I workout three times a week kettebells it has helped tone in a lot of places hope to keep y'all all motivated go girls go

      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!
