YEAH!!!! It feels great!! Enjoy it!!! Savor every second!!

I think that even if they dont say anything they still notice they just are not going to praise for weight loss- its a weird girl thing in my office. It would KILL them to say wow your losing weight!! The only one who has said anything is the only male who works at my office!!

Awesome !!! What a great feeling!!!

I know it makes my day when it happens (and it doesn't happen very often). I believe the people I know are more hesitant to say anything to me - I just had my first experience myself and it made my day!!!

People weren't to hesitant to say things to me when I was heavier - at my highest weight an old co-worker asked me if I was pregnant again. I was so hurt. I told her no, I was just fat - thanks for noticing !!!

Took my co-workers 60 lbs to notice. I think its hard for other women to acknowlege women 's successes in weight loss. Men have been conditioned not to comment. Another reason we need a buddy during weight loss to encourage us along the way.

There's also the people who always comment and you're not sure if they're just being nice. I want one of those talking mirrors like the witch in Snow White.

"Mirror, mirror on the wall...do I look any skinnier today?"

      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!
