Well today is my 4 month mark I started at 347 no pre-surgery loss today I'm at 275 which makes it 72 lbs!!! I'm ecstatic about it I'm doing things I haven't done in years but I'm a little scared weight loss has slowed so much I even gained 3 lbs I kept telling myself maybe gaining muscle bug I doubt it...hope it's just a stall my first before and after pik I had to look high and low for a full body shot I avoided those and crop was my best friend here goes nothing

Sleeved 2/27. Down 77lbs.

II set a goal for myself early on. I didn't think I went too aggressive. I weight myself regularly, but don't chart anything until after my Wednesday morning weigh-in. Wednesday just happened to be the day of the week I had my surgery.

The following is a simple Excel graph showing my target line (blue) vs actual weight (red).

Today marks the half way point in my weight loss journey. I should accomplish my goal by Christmas. Last week, my 12 year old son couldn't keep up with me while hiking. What seemed impossible almost five months ago is coming to fruition. Who would have thought! Talk about a new lease on life. I enjoy logging into this site

every Friday (after I weigh in) to read about everybody's journey. If misery loves company, so does success stories!

Before preop diet: 282

Operation day: 258 on 6/25

Post op weight 7/5: 248...my excitement was moving slide 1 less 50 lb notch on scale at work. Creamy Soup is too much for me, experienced dumping syndrome which was not worth the taste of cream of mushroon soup. So far feeling pretty good about things. Survived being at july 4th cookout around lots of yummy looking good.

My dr recommended doing body measurements to show success even when weight doesn't always drop as fast as we want.

I am struggling to choke down my Protein Shakes. Where do you find Unjury? What do you recommend to mix it with. I liked Premier Protein but am getting grossed out by it now.

Unjury was so unsavory I gave the Trial pack away. The best $200.00 investment you can make it to buy the Ninja. I start everyday with a Protein packed home-made shake full of fresh/frozen fruit, non-fat Greek yogurt, flax seed oil, vanilla whey, non fat milk and a few ounces of juice. Couldn't do without my Ninja blender. Worth every penny.

hmmmm I LOVE Unjury--most palatable Protein Powder out there IMO. It's also "hospital grade"--most bioavailable one so many hospitals and physicians recommend it when patients need Protein powder for various health issues. I did NOT like the Unjury "cheese sauce," but the vanilla, chocolate splendor and unflavored are fabulous. They blend really well, too.

      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!
