So happy to see everyone check in here so I don't feel like I am the ONLY one. It really helps. Anyone else having foot cramps before bed? I do my best on fluids, but this is happening every night!

Tonight I had to go to a party and I'm seeing a lot of people for the 1st time since my surgery. They were freaking. Couldn't believe how good I looked and how small my face is which is def the biggest change

Ok. Been a while since last post. I've discovered I have things called bones! I was feeling my belly (my favorite thing now when I wake up) and felt a dang rib! Also while flying out to DC last week the ride was horrible. No cushion in the butt anymore and I had to get up every so often to walk. I look at my old clothes and can't believe I used to wear those! Those are getting sold to make room for new ones sometime. Had fun at Mardi Gras in Shreveport last night. I dropped like 3 pounds from dancing and raising hell! Tons of fun! I need to get some new pics done....

Darn it! I gained 2 lbs' date=' it's not that time of the month and I swear my stomach shrank. 2 oz of chicken and I feel sick. What the heck is going on??[/quote']

I get like that too. One minute I'm losing like crazy then I sit for a week or so 2 lbs up then it drops its stupid don't worry about it it will pass. It's annoying as hell but you will pull through it as I do. Last week I had great loss now those same 2 lbs float around. Could be Water could anything

Yep on both counts.

I was up two pounds and it finally dropped today. It had to be Water.

I have been actually hungry for about 3 weeks. Some days are worse then others. :-( I was hoping I would be farther out before I actually got hungry.

I don't find that I'm hungry until night time :( I don't even think its that I'm actually hungry but I just want to snack constantly. I think I need to go to bed by 8 to avoid this.

      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!
