Looking for widow woman mentor



Recommended Posts

I'm 7 weeks post op and became a widow last week. I'm looking for someone who might be in a similar situation to buddy up with/ mentor. Thank you.

I can't imagine going thru the beginning of this weight loss journey alone. My deepest sympathy to you. I'm not a widow but have lost my oldest brother to Leukemia. Not the same relationship obviously but I do know how hard it is losing a loved one. Blessings to you and your family.

unfortunately i'm pretty sure there are others in your predicament :(

hopefully someone in a similar position will reach out to you

your very recent loss must feel like an open wound

even others/me who have lost a loved one - can not totally have your personal, specific sad feelings

my thoughts being sent your way

i'm sure your loving husband was very proud about your weight loss

for you and DH - continue your well deserved journey towards health, happiness and a longer life

good luck

condolences :(

      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!
