So as I'm typing this I am 90lbs less than when I started this journey. Everyday is still a challenge but its getting better day by day. I wish sometimes that they would have done surgery on my brain to cure the head hunger and mind games we all go through but I'm so thankful to have this sleeve. So much in my life has changed in the past 6months. I've gone back to school to finish my RN. I spend more time running and playing with my son instead of on the couch stuffing my face. And I'm training to run a half marathon next March something I never would have done before.

I hope all my other sleevsters are doing great. Lets bring on the next six months and see where we are at the year mark.

We both have 50+ starting BMIs, so seeing your before and after pics is very exciting. You look great! (Something my mom used to say comes to mind: "Ohhh, you have a lovely shape!") Congrats on your progress, both with your weight loss and your education! I'm hoping that my weight loss helps me get the courage to go back to school for my RN. :)

Here's to the next 6 months! *Cheer!*

      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!
