Hey everyone! I've seen so many positive posts today! All of those make me even happier to have had this done. I posted a picture of how I look today. And I can really tell my weight loss in my neck and my clothes!

My appointment for 2 month follow up is next week :) So far, there is no food I can't tolerate, except fried foods though. Those make me feel super sick, which is a blessing in disguise! I have a plan of eating very healthy during the week and I give myself small treats over the weekend. It's been working well and I believe in indulgence with moderation! This is going to be for the rest of our lives, so I have to make sure I don't deprive myself, as well as over indulge. Even though I can only eat very little. Still no soda, red meat, or pork. I've had bites, but not meals. No drinks high in sugar, I love Water and some coffe every now and then. All in all, this surgery has been the best thing I've ever done.

For those of you struggling in the first few weeks, believe me, I had seconds thoughts on doing this to myself. But once you get some normalcy around a month or so out, you'll start reaping the benefits! I feel energized, happy, and smaller!

Have a beautiful day everyone! Xoxo

Congrats! This post made me feel better... I am on my 2nd day of liquid pre op diet and feel like I am going crazy. I want to eat so bad but I keep trying to tell myself In a couple months (surgery Dec 6th) I will be feeling so much better just like you!

Way to go, girl!! 50 lbs is HUGE in 2 months!! Keep up the good work!! I have also read that by upping your caloric intake even a bit for a day or two each week, it actually helps you to lose more faster, since your metabolism gets kind of revved up on your high calorie days and stays revved! You are looking good!

      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.

        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!
