I have been riding with my 9 year old son. We do 4 miles around the neighborhood. He is a football player, a little chunky, and wants to slim down a little and get faster. I feel proud that he is interested in getting fit.

ParaGirl,

That's fantastic. It's great to be out doing exercise with your son! Being active with my daughter was a giant motivator for me.

You are doing great too! 53 pounds since October is amazing! Welcome to our wacky world.

Look at you at 201.

I am tired of snow. It snowed another couple inches after I got to work.

Saturday is my anniversary. I would be uber cool to see the ones by then. You'd think I'd work extra hard to make that happen, but I'm not feeling the extra part. I work plenty hard most of the time. :thumbup:

But thanks for noticing.

Hi everyone!

I need some help...I have an "extra" appointment with my surgeon tomorrow (one that I requested this early, instead of waiting until the one two weeks before surgery). I am going to talk to him about the Realize band, Lap Band options (APS, APL). If you were to do it over again, what would you ask, or request?

I would request an APS because I have the older 10cm band. Plus there are more Allergen bands around than the Realize ones.

I went to spin class tonight and used my new shoes. OMFG I frigging love them. It might have been the best spin class ever. It definitely felt weird to walk in my regular shoes after class.

Yeah, it's fun to spend the state's money.

And I do buy stuff with my own dollars for me too while I'm there...nice perk.

My fingers are crossed for you B. Hope you get that call too. We'd love to share our nasty cold winters with you! :thumbup:

      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!
