weight challenge - Thanksgiving to New Years Eve



Recommended Posts

62 pounds and NO BAND? You are so gonna be an A student, heh heh.

I've had a surgery date since August so I figured I shouldn't waste the time I have until my surgery(less than 3 weeks away!). I'm doing Atkins/low carb and I feel great when I'm on it. It works....until you stop, everyone knows the routine. My motivation has been that as soon as I get the band, all that weight will never come back as opposed to gaining it all back when I get tired of it (like I did last time).

Congrats whosyadaddy, Candle and Trystelle on reaching your goals, and then some!

This is exactly what I did and for the same reasons. Never too soon to establish new and healthy habits!!!!! Congrats on your success!:clap2:

      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!
