It's been 3 months...? Uh oh!



Recommended Posts

So it's been 3 months. I had a sw of 324 and I am down to 245 as of this morning. I have my 3 month follow up tomorrow. Is 59 lbs since surgery a good number?! I am eating ok so I think, I'm walking so much. I am just so nervous. Im seeing the hard work pay off. Im just so worried about what my surgeon will say. I guess I am seeking approval. I know I'm a grown woman, I should deal, but I want my surgeon to say good job! Sigh...

Your doing great!! I worry about surgeons who come down on patients, they of all should know there is no cookie cutter approach to weight loss!

Thanks! I just pulled up and I'm heading in. In my pants 2 sizes smaller and a jacket that is the smallest size I have bought since graduating high school 20 years ago. Here I go!!!

Silly me!! So for starters the assistant called me in and she was asking me all these weird questions. Then she asked who my surgeon was. I told her. Then she said she didn't recognize me. Lol!! So I showed her my driver's license and she started laughing and apologized. Both her and my surgeon were very praising of my weight loss. My surgeon was more concerned about my eating and flipping through my journal. He said I was obviously doing what I was suppose to because the weight was coming off. He said if I continue sticking to my diet, excercising and taking my Vitamins I'll keep seeing results. It was a great visit!

      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.

        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!
