Omg I made it to onederland!!! 9 weeks after surgery, and I'm here. I can't believe it. I haven't seen a one as the first number in my weight, since I was in high school. I almost cried (but didn't) although I did do a happy dance all around the bedroom. My first goal accomplished. Rewarded myself with a pair of jeans that are OMG a size 14. Next, goal is to do a 5k run/walk with my daughter in June.

Here are some pics of me before and after.

No, it actually took 10 I keep forgetting about the pre-op week.

My doctor has progressed my diet to now eating soft foods. But high Protein foods( tuna, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, eggs)

I try really hard to get the liquids in. Haven't gotten up to drinking 8 glasses of Water yet. I normal will have a yogurt for Breakfast, some tuna or Soup for lunch and if I'm working I don't eat dinner. ( I work long hours) I do my best not to eat after 7pm.

Exercise I go to the gym two to three times a week for about an hour. If I can't make the gym I do Zumba. At the gym I work on the elliptical, treadmill, and then I do light weights. I hit my problem areas

Hope this can help you on your journey.

      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!

        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!
