That was my weight this am! I am finally below 200!!!!! Barely but I am there! If only I could keep from freaking myself out. This is the weight range I was able to get to when I would try to lose weight prior to surgery. Then I would never make it any further. I am questioning if I will make it any further or if this is it and the surgery was for nothing. I know I know STOP IT!!! But for today I am celebrating my loss AND the fact I am finally beginning to have clothes be too big. I had only 3 pair of jeans and 5 t shirts that fit when I was a t my biggest so now my Pre Biggest clothes are getting too big ! Woot woot!

Thank you everyone! I am super proud of myself! Next mini goal is to be below the "obese" range. I need to lose 14 more pounds to simply be "overweight." I haven't seen THAT in well over 10 years!

2bullymom, you talk about different stages of obesity. It's funny because on my phone notes I have calculated and already know exactly where I need to be weight-wise to be at each level. I am 5'1" so my weight numbers seem like they will be impossible to reach.

Ideal weight

117-121

Not overweight

122-132

Overweight

133-157

Obese

158-184

Morbidly obese

185-211

Super obese

264 >

My highest weight 266.2

      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!
