It seems that an individual decided to report my beach photo post from this morning about exercising/loving who you are now in this moment, and living life to the fullest and actively and joyfully as possible pre-surgery.

It makes me angry when people get catty about positivity. Why be in a support group if you aren't going to share the wins, too?

Misery loves company, but I won't continue to participate if that's the way it is going to be here. Easy as that. ✌️

Anyone know if there is a way to delete your profile? There are plenty of likeminded individuals in social platforms.

No clue. I didn't think the post was offensive at all. But... everyone is fighting their own battles and you never know what ticks people off in their sensitivity stages.

Post was the opposite of offensive. I found it uplifting.

It's not that this will hinder progress at all, but throwing shade isn't cool—especially when they can do it anonymously without risk of a clap back.

Not seeing the ability to delete a profile (just recommendations on ghosting).

I don't understand how that can happen and people go have months and page long threads about their adventures with adultery.

I really liked your post and thought it was some needed positivity.

Please don't delete your account before I can PM you, lol.

:( I thought you looked fabulous. I liked your positivity. It was a good reminder that it's OK to like how you look at any size. Most of us are doing WLS for health, not beauty.

      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!
