Congrats to you too Candle !!!!

I think part of the reason why the weight has come off faster then my dr had predicted is because I had close to 200 lbs to lose and I burned more calories just to do day to day things.From reading other posts I think it might slow down as I become lighter.Also I've cut out almost all carbs, I used to live on breads, Pasta, and rice .

Linds- my DS weighs 25 lbs, my arms and back ache after holding him for about a half hour I couldn't imagine carrying 3 of him around with me all day everyday !!!

Thindolphin- I've been walking a lot which is harder now since it is so cold out. I try to walk 3 x a week for 30-45 mins. I have an arthritic knee( from being obese) so I am not doing anything too intense. I am thinking about renting a dance workout video soon to see how I feel with that.

Tigger Shorty- I was given my surgery date 5 days ahead of time and wasn't required to do a pre-op diet.

Although for my post up liquid phase I really liked Tomato Soup

Happy New Year to everyone !

Walking has been my main exercise too and I've been slacking BIG time since the weather changed.

I just got a DVD on ebay - Walk Away the Pounds by Leslie Sansone. Everyone swears by it. I'll let you know how I do with it.

The Biggest Loser DVD's are suppose to be really good too.

Keep up the great work!

      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!
