No longer "obese"!!!



Recommended Posts

Just had to share - got on the scale this morning, and I am no longer obese! I went from being extremely obese at a BMI of 43 to just being overweight today! 32 pounds to go until I'm "normal"!!

And mine tests at 28.9 to 29 so. I too Celebrate, less than 15 pounds to the goal I have set me, and I have diminished past where Nurse Valerie and Dr Bradley J wanted me. This is the Second surgery they claimed Nurse Valerie is on Medical leave from, so I am required to meet with someone else. This leaves me with 3 suppositions:
1) She really has something going,on internally and IS NOT WELL .
2) she doesn't want to have to see ME so told them "Say,I'm Sick".
3) The Bariatri clinic don't want to be caring for ME, not even a mop- flops worth. ADK,at this point. But anyway at this point, I will do what I will have to sustain and support ME, this self- confidence I had to win my way to, it did not come easily to a meek subservient doormat like me but NOBODY will wipe their feet on Frustr8 for the remainder of her earthly life!

      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!
