Down -115lbs since 6/6/13



Recommended Posts

In 2013 I became super unhappy with myself. I didnt know where I was gonna go in life due to the fact that i was 30 pounds away from being 300lbs. I was in awe & disbelief with the fact that I let myself go. In march I sat my mom down and let her know that I was considering weightloss surgery. In march of 2013 I went to my first appointment. I fell in love with my surgeon & knew it was the right choice for me. After 3 months of testing & waiting on insurance I got approved & had my surgery June 6th 2013. My highest weight was 269. I am now 153.4. I have lost a total of -115.6lbs & want to loose another 20! Never give up on your dreams. This has been the best decision of my life!

      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!
