Laura you ARE a success in my eyes too!!!!

I remember my one year surga versariy and my surgeon telling me I was there, I was done, I was a success. Well, that was about 25# heavier than I am now, but i KNOW what he meant. The change from weighing 300# plus to get down to the 170s was astounding. I looked like a normal woman my age. I can't wait to see him for my 2 year now that i have lost even more and have had plastics. I don't know why i so crave his approval, but I guess I do! anyway, I totally relate to your feeling!!! congrats!!!!

You know Jane his approval meant so much to me too.. I guess I feel a bit of a god complex for him :P

I was in the waiting room and there was a few People in there two were there for their one week out and I thought to myself what a wonderful journey they have ahead of them!

I had to stop myself from talking like a fool to them!

I will go back in six months again and I hope to be even more healthy then.

Laura- you are a success! You look great, nothing wrong with shameless selfies when you are looking fab.

Next time, talk like a fool to the people in the waiting room - you will blow them away and inspire them all at once :-)

      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!
