Wow! beautiful transition. I think they got married before she lost weight too.

Also, I think with scaring it just depends what type of healer you are. Some people get the bumpy look(forget what it's called) and others heal very well and it would be hard to find their scars.

A family member of mine had Thyroid cancer and they open up her neck from ear to ear. A year later, I have to really look closely to see the scar. She wears low cut shirts and no makeup and honestly, you can barely see her scars. She's in remission. Lucky woman - in more ways than one!

I think scar damage depends on heredity as well, I am a cancer survivor and I had an access port sewn into my right upper chest/shoulder area. You have to look very very hard to see the scars now 1.5 years later. If I put some cover up on it, you wouldn't be able to see it at all.

How about Peter Jackson (director of Lord of the Rings)? He's looking much thinner these days. And what about Billy Bob Thornton? He was heavy for a long time before hooking up with Angelina Jolie. What a freak show the two of them together were! But he's managed to keep the weight off for a good 10 years now. Maybe he had the lapband done in Europe.

Didn't the one nurse on ER have bypass or something? She dropped a HUGE amount really fast between seasons, then began gaining some back---I don't even know if she is on the show anymore.

She actually did the liquid diet @ the Duke Weight Loss Center. Ruben Studdard recently did the same thing.

Star Jones has a weird looking head too. Like her skull bones are too big. It just looks odd like she might fall over from the weight of her head.
You know, I have noticed that about a lot of RNY patients. Not necessarily when you see them in person, but in pictures.

Hi, I love John Goodman from Roseanne. He is adoreable. Maybe it would help him in his obesity battle to get banded. He is an attractive man. He would be even more handsome if he dropped the weight. What about John candy? Had he lived would he have had surgery?

      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!
