Great job! I can eat noticeably more now also and my food issues rear their ugly heads every now and again too. Not keeping junk in the house makes a huge difference, otherwise I become powerless and cheez-its start calling my name from the pantry! Been doing the couch to 5K app on my phone. I really like it.

Hello to all my feb sleevers!!! I was sleeved 2-5-13. Hw:314, SW:307 CW:244. I haven't been losing. But I am incorporating workouts now. Mainly plenty of dance 2-3 hours straight with minimum rest. So I guess my body is doing whatever. Starting 30 day squat challenge on the 1st of August. I so want to get out of this long stall, enough ranting just checking in! Way to go everyone because we are all truly on a JOURNEY!!!!! Keep up the great work!!!!

I think we all have a bit of apprehension, anxiety, but also happiness that this could be life changing. I think we are all doing the right thing first and foremost for our health, secondly for the ease of walking, sitting, thirdly it will he nice to have clothes that fit or are more stylish. I am retiring in June and just want to travel witho+ut the aches and pains of arthritis. Not that it will go away but it should be better with less wait. Being almost 62 I'm hoping my face doesn't sag too much. Lol. Well I'm a bit scared but happy and happy for all of you. Best of Luck. BTW Jan 31 is my surgery. ????

      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!
