I have been using a HRM for years and absolutely love it because it keeps me where I should be to burn fat etc.etc. I bought a middle of the road monitor, it is about 7 yrs old, its a Oregon brand, not alot of bells or whistles but it does what I need it to do..... monitor my heart rate. Lately I have been looking at whats new on the market and what they have to offer but then I said what do I need...... answer... monitor my heart rate..... soooooo I have not bought a new one because my old one is still going strong and doing what I bought it to do.

I totally rely on it.. I always "thought" that I was in the zone... but once I put on the monitor it told a completely different story - LOL. I had to work up to getting in the zone and maintain it you just cant do it the first time using it. I cant stress enough that how important this little gadget is - good luck

I did a lot of research and Polar seems to be a good brand.

Yeah it's a great monitor. Did you get the cream also. Better conductivity then the monitor on your skin. Better readings basically.

      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!
