I'm 3 pounds away from losing 100 pounds. If anyone would have told me a mere four months ago I'd be saying this right now I would have told them they were crazy, but here I am. I still have a lot left to lose but I am only 6 pounds away from my halfway goal!

I'm can totally relate! I'm down 80 pounds since the start of my journey. Hard to wrap my brain around it. When I started I was in a size 26 and am now fitting in some size 18s. I feel like I am now living and not just existing. This has been one of the best decisions of my life even with the rough beginning. Congrats on your weight loss!

I'm having a lot of problems with this site. I can't access personal messenger. It says I don't have permission. I tried multiple times to send a help request and it won't go through. This is such a bummer bc this is such a great source of support. :(

      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!
