@@laurenella82 check out Vionics......I have a thing for shoes, too, but need an orthotic footbed. We live in marvellous times.......I have clogs, sandals (snazzy ones!) and I have my eye on a pair of their boots.

My dream outfit? Being acceptable on the beach, not embarrassed in my bathing suit. I already looks great (did I say that?) in a dress. That was a big goal for me.

I want to be able to wear a swimming suit and feel good. That'd be a huge deal :)

How could I forget?!

I bought a house last year with a huge swimming pool and I've been hiding in my house when guests come over for a dip for 2 summers in a row! I'm always in charge of the food....LOL...No more! :P

I have a few!

1. Something backless.

2. My Abercrombie & Fitch jeans(last worn when I weighed 142 lbs)

3. Shorts that don't have to go to my knees.

4. Leggings and knee high boots with a top that doesn't necessarily have to cover my butt.

Im really happy with my daily outfit of skinny jeans or jeans with a slight flare, a long sleeve T, a cute vest or fitted cardigan sweater, a long scarf (I have about 30 !) silver hoop earrings, a snazzy Bracelet, and to top it all off, a cool pair of flat boots and sometimes a cute knitted hat . This all shows off my figure in the right way !

I've been having fun re inventing my "look". Jeans and Tshirts are the norm, because of all the animals.. But, I've joined Pinterest and have been having a great time "pinning" new looks. It has actually made me less uncomfortable with shopping. In the past, it was find jeans that fit, buy five pair, dozen tee shirts, good to go... Not any more!!! Fun times!

So I guess, I indulge my dream outfit every time I pin!

      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!
