Feeling Bitter Sweet!

Soooo... My weight has started moving again, but honestly I'm not ready for it. A year ago I was 259 lbs and now probably by Monday I'll be entering into the 160's.

I can not believe I'm saying this but I'm just losing completely too fast. I mean... I'm successfully tone'n while I go and my arms aren't flab'n in the wind... but my mind is not quite ready for the 160's.

Ok and what's REALLY scary is that I'm ONLY 3 months post op. WTH... The Dr said the WLS helps with a for sure 12 months then your weight loss will stop. BUT.. good golly! How small will I be in 9 more months. I still wanna be thicker than a snicker but right now I'm heading towards looking like Pooky the Crack Head!

Sorry... It's one of those days.

I too hope to have your problem, to be honest.

If you are very worried, might worth contacting your nutritionist, or even your surgeon.

      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!
