Here is a picture of my yesterday on Thanksgiving, giving thanks as this is the first time since maybe middle school since I have worn a size large!!!! I was so excited/worried when I bought the yoga pants earlier in the week that they would not fit. I bought them as motivation as I was in a stall. Most people wear their fat people clothes on Thanksgiving, but I tried them on and they FIT!!! I was excited!! Then my family(mom,dad,aunt,oldest daughter, grandson) showed up and they all said that I was doing awesome!!! Gave me some motivation and encouragement like never before since I am normally a Yoyo dieter. But I got a little bit of everything and shared my plate with my 18 month old grandson. I think he actually ate more than I did!!! I had the best holiday, got in two 15 mins on the elliptical and it was not as hard as I thought it would be!!! Hope everyone else is doing good also!!!

      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!
