I actually was fat at 17...

But smaller than your highest???

Yes. It is safe to say that I probably weight less now than I did then.

Not at 17, but when I was 25 and about 135 pounds (my lowest ever) I remember talking with a friend of mine, saying, "you know, if this is the best I can be, I'll be happy with it." Little did I know that it was my best, and that will be the number I'm aiming for once again, even though I know my body will look a lot different than it did then!

I was heavy but certainly not obese at 17.... probably about 10# less than my current goal weight. Yeah, I'd take it. :D

It is amazing, I look back on pictures of myself at 17 and wonder how, why, what and who in the world ever made me think I was fat! Maybe I will figure that one out one of these days. Too bad I didn't know then that I was okay and to enjoy every minute of it instead of constantly trying to fit in and worry about how I looked!

      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!
