I voted for Thanksgiving. All the family and togetherness of Christmass without the stress of shopping & decorating.

In my younger years we all used to Celebrate Beethoven's birthday on December 16 by getting naked and going for an icy dip. Loads of fun.

However, I was a skinny hippy then and didn't think twice about being naked anywhere.

My favorite day is Thanksgiving and not because of the food, but because it is the official kick off of the holiday season. As a child I loved getting up early and watching the Macy's day parade and then the other Thanksgiving day parades. That has always stuck with me.

I really need to pick two, Halloween is also my Wedding anniversary. So they're both my favorite day, followed closely by New Year's Eve which wasn't a choice.

Hubby and I absolutely love Halloween! We decorate the house inside and out every year and hand out tons of goodies to all the kiddies! We even dress up too!

Hey, I like several different days. I love public holidays and I love Chanukah and Simchat Torah. Not that we are really religious but they are nice family type events to go to together. Susannah

      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!
