Today, I am officially out of the 300's! :D I haven't seen a 200 number on the scale in about 8 years! I can't tell you how excited I am!! I've lost about 52 pounds now and I can't wait to see that number go up. For so long, I have identified myself with being 300+. It is no longer a part of my present and as long as I work hard, it will not have a place in my future! I am so thankful for this surgery. I can have a chance at having a positive future now!

Thanks everyone! It does feel great to be out of the 300's! I had my surgery on 8/27. My weight loss has been a little slow, but I have to remember that it is so much better than when I tried to do this on my own! I can't wait to hit one-derland! I haven't been there since probably 5th grade! :blink:

      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!
