Oh,no! I'm 517 pounds.....

Oh, no! I'm 517 pounds.......on Jupiter.

http://www.explorato...du/ronh/weight/ < check your weight on other planets.

That is, if I could stand the crushing gravity and stand on a gas planet that would be my weight.

I'm only 36 pounds on the moon.

So what's your point, Gman?

The scale ony tells you how much gravity is pulling on you because you are on the Earth. Your weight does not mean as much as your composition...muscle, fat, bones, etc. Those are the things that determine your welfare.

Don't let that little, flat buttinsky scale push you around. Let it talk and then tell it to shut up.

Love this! I am constantly saying to people...stop weighing yourself! Go by your clothes and inches. I started in a size 24-26....now I'm a 7-11....don't need a scale to tell me I lost weight. I only weigh once a month...keeps me from going crazy! Lol

I have decided to unfriend my scale, I'm 3 weeks post op tomorrow and while I did lose 19 in 2 weeks it hasn't moved in 6 days. Don't worry I'm not all freaked out I'll never lose again, i wont make one of those crazy posts of " whats going on" :)

I've decided to go with the flow and the pounds will drop. I'm paying attention to my measurements, I like that better.

I agree about the mind, I had a revision from a band and I initially lost, then nothing so I do have that going through my mind. I researched this much more then I did the band so I'm confident if I do what I'm suppose to be doing I will see the results.

Good luck to you :)

      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!
