Hi how r u? When was ur sleeve done? How is ur progress?

I'm doing great! My surgery was on 9/10 with Dr. David Kim. I've lost a total of 35 pounds (9 of which were lost on the 2-week pre-op diet). I hit a stall around week 3 but now I'm steadily losing again.

I haven't done much exercise yet, other than walking maybe 3 days/week for 40 minutes or so. I'm trying to get into the habit now of walking twice a day for 20 minutes each time while I'm at work - get that out of the way the easy way :) Now that I've been cleared to exercise, I'm going to try to find a gym that I won't mind walking into. Not sure I can face something like a 24 Hour or Lifetime yet........

How about you?

Sorry I haven't been able to post lately but I read all post and everyone seems to be doing great...

Surgery 9/19...down 53 lbs...started at size 20-22 down to a 12-13! ;)

I am loving my new look and life.

I would love to find a work out partner in the Fort Worth area if anyone is interested. I joined Planet Fitness in north side Fort Worth ($10 a month) and think I would have better motivation if I had a friend with the same goals as me to work out with. Call me if interested 817-223-6241.

      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!
