9 pounds away from onederland



Recommended Posts

Haven't been under 200 pounds in over a decade and even then I was 190 pounds. Lapband got 40 pounds off and now post op 10days sleeve I got another 14 pounds off.

I am 9 pounds away from being under 200 pounds! My birthday is july 31st so its my goal to reach under 200 pounds by then. I am so excited!

birthday is july 31st - goal, to reach under 200 pounds by then.

those 14 lbs are only the first of many many more lbs to come off :)

being so early PO - its quite possible you will lose those 9 lbs as a b'day present :)

playing devils advocate - if it takes an additional week or so to attain your goal....... :angry:

whats a couple of weeks in a lifetime ;)

good luck

happy early b'day :)

you will continue to look better and better year after year :)

enjoying your healthier, happier, longer life :)

Yes it does because I have gone through so much with the lapband and to have two procedures at one time was tough. I'm hoping the sleeve will carry me the rest of the way.

Wow! Congrats...onederland seems a long way away for me. I was almost there a couple of years ago but couldn't seem to get below 215.

Good luck to you! You'll be there in no time.

      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!
