And you are smaller than the weight you lied about weighing last time.

Last time I subtracted 40 lbs LOL

Yeah don't come to Ohio, although they finally deleted the Social Security numbers off the licenses they do still put weights. Back when I was still working at Wal-Mart, my assigned area was right next to Sporting Goods so often I would go over there, and sell Hunting and Fishing ones. Guy. asked me " Why do I need my weight on my Hunting License?"I told him, if someone shoots you we'll have an easier time identifying the BODY.
So many years I have claimed 250 as a weight, now that I am well below that -''I had better make an honest woman of myself!

In Massachusetts, they put your AGE on your driver's license.

My NSV from this morning is my BMI is 29.9. I've gone from obese to overweight!

Ready to do that myself, just almost ready to surmount. the Onederland boundary.
Hey I have a new NSV! On our local shuttle buses there is an arm rest between seats you can flip up to sit down, leaving local hospital , visited the ER on a little bowel-related issue, sat down on the seat without flipping it up, and I didn't have to flip the center one up to get enough room for my over-sized backside to sit. Baby's Backside Cheeks going Bye Bye and I plan it to be forever! Not only was it BIG before but it had an upward swoop line a Ducks, my kids when they were in a Gerry backpack would put their feet down on it, and stand up while I was hiking along. Was nothing for me to walk to Westerville, Worthington or over to the Ohio State University district. Now I moan at walking 4-5 blocks, oh I do it, but I still moan!
And after years of owning up to 250, even when I was over 300, I can't,pass for that weight anymore, not when I am ready for the 100s! Yippety Skippee Yahoo for ME!

Had a great NSV today.

My spa has normal/plus size robes for us ladies.

Today the tech led me over to the lockers with the normal size robes.
Could hardly believe it!

LOL I subtracted 88 on mine 🤦‍♀️

I went to get my license with all of my friends and I was a little embarrassed to write my actual weight on the application in front of all of them. Oh well. I'm hoping to get to that weight soon!

Just had Ambulatory Surgery to remove a cyst, not feeling too bad, getting over the General they gave ME. My new NSV, I no longer need the "OMG--- Just How Big ARE YOU," size, I got a "Normal" and had enough room it met in the back, so no more "Moon over Miami" for ME!

      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!
