Today I'm making a vow to all my fellow sleeve friends... I will stop dabbling in the Easter candy. Number on the scale hasn't budged since last week and now I know why. There is a reason jelly bellies are called jelly bellies!!! Please feel free to check in on me throughout the day!

Oh man yea get off that for sure. I don't even look at my sons candy. For me thinking about the wasted money of a major surgery and the fact that part of my body is now missing keeps me away from candy fat and carbs.

Yeah, those little balls of gooey sugar have more calories than I thought!

My son got 4, YES 4 Easter baskets, all with candy in them. I did eat a chocolate covered brownie egg (a little smaller in size than a PB egg). But that was it. He got some rice crispie treats that have been calling me, but I have resisted. Stay strong...candy is one mean slider!

I did it! I passed out an entire bag of jelly Beans out to my students and didn't have a single one AAAND let my own kids at home have a little from their basket after dinner and didn't touch anything. Plus I worked out on treadmill and burned 300 cals tonight! Feels good. Thanks for listening. :-) I felt more determined knowing some of you were out there in the same boat as me.

I have to admit I had some chocolate yesterday. Went to walmarts and there was a basket full of marked down Easter chocolate. My stomach was upset for a couple of hours. Learned my lesson.

      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!
