What made you smile today?



Recommended Posts

Today I stopped in to Starbucks. In my former life I was a SB junkie. I have stopped in once to say hello, but today I went in for an iced herbal tea.

said, Wow ! Look at those cheek bones! You are looking great!" Well, that is what made me smile.

Also, my pants and underwear are falling down!

Hi what made me smile today was being called Mrs. Skinny Minnie as well as joining LA Fitness gym today.

That's great! I would love to join a gym but they are so expensive in my opinion. I would love to find a walking buddy.

Just saw my surgeon and he seemed a bit shocked with my weight loss.

Gotta love it! I lost weight on my own before and I was down to 159. I am a few inches taller than her and I really think she took offense that I was her exact weight.

I never said anything at the time, I guess she didn't like it that I was the same weight as she was.....

My surgeon said he ready to submit to my insurance, Humana, that made me happy. He said it takes about 2 weeks. Anyone else have Humana, and how did it go.

Sorry I don't know anything about Humana, but I think there is an Insurance forum on here.

Wow @@itsmekarenlee! I have actually had a dr apologize to me once as well. He did something that could have caused some for real issues.

      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!
