7 Months & 116.4 Pounds



Recommended Posts

I am 7.5 months post op and down 116.4 pounds! I started to get discouraged today because as the numbers get smaller, you don't see those huge changes in your body from month to month. So I thought maybe I should remind myself of where I've started & where I am. I shot this pic after my work out :-)

Thank you!!! Good question!!! I feel amazing!! That is the best part. I am doing things I never thought I could do (like running 3 miles nonstop!!), have so much more energy, and am so much more confident :-) Plus I'm healthy :-)

I am 11 days post op and still have trouble swallowing cottage cheese at times. Does this heartburn feeling eventually go away?

I'm usually between 600-700 calories. I try really hard to stick to no more than 40g carbs, at least 65-70g Protein, and at least 10 8-oz waters. I track everything on MFP. My name is livvsmum if you want to add me. All my logs are viewable :-)

YES! I promise it gets better. The first 2 weeks were TOUGH. Just get through it & every day gets better. I actually don't take any hb meds at all now. :-)

      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!
