9 weeks out and I am down 40lbs. I feel like it should be more but as long as I'm losing that's all that matters.

Same here

I see my surgeon Fri and I'm kinda scared I havent done as well. I've lost 27lb and tomorrow is my 6 week mark. I've thought I was lower avg but today for whatever reason I have just been battling some serious blues. Feel I'm not progressing as much and just so tired all the time. My husband had foot surgery Fri and fell tonight ending back in the er. I've been worn out between hustling down hallways with patients all day and 2hr commute to work. My day seems to never end soon enough between cooking dinner and all the other things I think I barely have the time or energy for it must be done. Idk..just in a funky mood.

I think you're doing great. 27 lbs is good in 6 weeks if you ask me. Sorry for the funk. Seems like you are just plain overloaded! I couldn't imagine a 2 hr commute! Mine in 5 minutes if that. Hope things even out for you soon!

So we made it home after a night in the ER. I am taking tomorrow off as husb is gonna have to get in with his surgeon. I'm calling it a mental health day and gonna make him stay put and reduce the hopping around so no more crazy accidents. Thank Dorian :)

Im trying to set a personal goal for me.

I am going on vacation in the begining of August, so another 2 months.

I wanted to get to 208 before my vacation. Is this goal realistic? 26 pounds a month is about right.

Ive done amazing with my weight loss from surgery 6 weeks ago.. Its obviously going to slow down, but does this sound realistic?

Working my a** off!! Litterally.. lol ^_^

      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!
