First big milestone for me met



Recommended Posts

I am so, so very excited I have lost 52 pounds as of today. I had my surgery 10/11/12 SW 278 and today 226. I have never in my life lost 50 pounds so this is monumental for me. My husband bought me a cool gadget for my scrapbooking, the Silhouette Cameo, to commemorate the 50 pound loss.

At 75 pounds I am getting a tattoo! And at 100 pounds a shopping spree.

I feel like I can do anything now! Every day I feel more alive and confident and energetic. I am so blessed. I am so glad that I didn't let anyone else or me talk myself out of getting the sleeve. It was totally worth it!

That's so great! I need to figure out some nice treats for myself. I've always said when I get skinny I'm getting a full back tattoo that I already have designed, but I need some more treats to add to the list. Don't forget to take a pic of that tattoo when you get it!!

      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'. ???

      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!
