Argon,

Look at how great you are doing! 99lbs is nothing to scoff at. Give yourself a Pat on the back and just start again this week. We've all been there and we'll join you in kicking the scale.

Happy lb hunting/target this week.

Congrats BlueGem on making the choice.

I was lurking here for quite some time before I decided to do the surgery. I have found this site to be extremly helpful. Welcome and good luck with the future banding. :D

Congratulations Bluegem!!!

Thank you.

I feel like a weird person.

Okay, you cannot type THIS, and expect me, or Yoda, for that matter to not respond! FEEL, WEIRD??????

Yeah... weird! I guess different too. I am constantly thinking "what am I doing trying to put these jeans/shirt/whatever on!?" Then I put them on, realize they're an 18, and too big.

I have lovely rolls on my back, they're shrinking, yes... but not fast enough. I honestly think if they were gone, I might be ok with everything else. They make me not what to wear anything too tight that'll show my 'back fat', or get trapped in it! Hopefully though, with the speed they're moving, at least I'll be getting down a few more sizes at least before these puppies are gone.

*edit - oh yeah... I'm not scoffing! I'm super happy and proud of the 99lbs. Maybe 99 even sounds more cool than 100?! I just want it to move already and let me keep going!!!*

      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!
