Aug 30 to Jan 30...

Im down over 70 pounds... weighing 200.5 as of tonight, missing my Onderland Goal by a Month and a 6/10 os a pound... no biggie, Im focused and changing the game plan.....

For the Month of February Im "experimenting"... doing some HEAVY exercising as well as upping my calories ( AND CARBS!) to fuel by body for said exercise... my goal is now going to be 1000 to 1200 a day.... still lower than recommended for the amount of exercise Im to be doing but we shall see how it works... I still have 70 pounds to go to my ultimate goal so some shaking up in in order...

Im also saying goodbye to the scale for the entire Month... Im putting it in the trunk of my car until March 1st... well after tomorrow I will... Im going take one last weight measure ) and maybe see that 199 on the scale) ... then measure my body ( neck, full bust, under bust, waist, hips, thighs and calf) then not do it again until March 1st...

so I will likely be spending a LOT LESS time around OH, VST and TT messageboards.... the temptation to check progress is greater when Im reading stories of everyone's journies...

the hope is to be down 10-15 pounds per month til July 1....

      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.

      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!
