Small world Don! How many other members do we have that want to meet?

I can say one thing...if we meet up we should bring the Protein, Vitamins or diet foods that we tried and didn't like to see if the others would like them. I hate throwing stuff out that is still date good. I have Isopure in grape and fruit punch, Protein Powder pouches unopened, B12 lozenges and a few other things I don't use. Heck I have Syntrax Twisted cherry and Fuzzy Navel I opened but, only took a couple scoops from because I tried one and gave some to my neighbor because I just can't drink it. I'm willing to share that too.

Savers, Salvation Army and Thrift stores are the best to buy from while losing. The day after Thanksgiving Walmart usually has jeans on special for about $10-16 bucks too.

      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!
