I cannot be the only one that absolutely hates the “small bathroom stalls”…..You know the ones where you have to straddle the toilet to open the door and when you sit down your thighs and arms hit the side…..Well yesterday, I had to use the “small stall”….I started to sweat and was over come with panic as i entered... Then I sat down…WOW what the hell, I had enough Room!!!! WOW for NSV!! I love my sleeve, today anyway….

I thought I was the only one that felt this way about those stupid little stalls! There is actually a chair in our office that I avoid sitting in because the arms of it dig into my legs and hurt. I sat in it yesterday and not only did it NOT hurt, I FIT!! lol! Yay for NSV's!

What wonderful NSV's to look forward too!!!! As it is, I'm such a germ-a-phob that I cringe if I have to even use a public restroom but then having the back of my legs hit the toilet as I'm squishing my fat body in to shut the door just has me immediately take my pants off when I get home & toss in the washer! LOL! I'm sure at nearly 300 lbs, I probably wouldn't even fit in an airplane restroom anymore either! :( I'm so excited for your NSV's tho ladies!!! Keep them coming!!! Give us all hope!!

      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!
