34 days to go. The other day I was weighing in at 211lbs. My goal was to get to 205lbs for my next appointment which is on the 8th of July. It's my final appointment and weigh in before surgery 2 wks after that. I can't drop below 205lbs or I drop below required bmi from insurance. I woke up today and now I'm at 206lbs! ? My weight fluctuates so much. I can't wait until I don't have to worry about losing too much. This has been incredibly tough believe it or not. I will definitely wear jeans and tennis shoes to the last weigh in. I want to be in onederland by surgery date! I hope. My feet are starting to hurt and I don't want to wait anymore for getting some of this weight off!

Good luck to you! You are almost there. It's hard to be on a diet and not lose too much. My PCP told me to only lose 1/2 lb per week...I have NEVER been on a diet when I tried to lose as little as possible. It is very difficult. My husband just laughs at me lol

I have to ask, how tall are you? 200 is not a bad weight for many

      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.

        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.

      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!
