October 100 Mile Challange!



Recommended Posts

GNC has a ready to drink Protein Shake out for the holidays. pumpkin Spice flavor. My wife went to pick some up today so I will give you a review on it when I have one. Pumpkin pie is my alltime favorite. One of the few foods I will miss eating in mass qty...lol Course, that is why I was as big as I was. That is all behind me now...This is a new chapter in my life and one I am loving!

I'm going to be working on a high-protein no-sugar, no crust recipe for pumpkin pie here shortly so wish me luck.

Up to 9.78 miles for the month! I feel great. Pre-op I couldn't walk one block without being out of breath, now 70 pounds lighter I'm walking across town. I love my sleeve :-D

I know this sounds boring (but I hate to cook)

I've been adding pumpkin purée pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg vanilla extract and stevia to my Greek yogurt and yum!

I have to try that, Laura.

And Gamegirl.. I'll be watching out for yours too!!

Thank you! I learned how when I was 12 years old, so I've been doing it going on 26 years now. It's relaxing to me, but I think I need to look for hobby that's a bit more active to share time with my crochet!

Spent 6 days on a ranch with no cell or wifi, walked 2 miles a day, a lot of uphill and stuck to my post op diet. Lost 0 lbs..... Frustrated, but trudging onward.

      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!
