Topic: My Journey: Goals, what I have learned along the way.

Everyone come prepared to discuss your goal.

Have you reached it and would you be willing to share your experiences with us still on the journey?

Are you close to your goal?

Is the goal realistic?

What obstacles are in your way?

How can we break them down?

Any other thoughts? Ideas? etc are welcomed.

That's a great idea! Maybe also people can write about the begginning of their band experience, good and bad, so that others who are new (like me) can see how others overcame the difficulties. And at what point did people notice not just the weight change but their body change. Goals are great for everything. This is great because it will give us all a good idea what people are looking forward to. and not just a weight goal, but what they hope to see diiferent in their lives because of the weight loss, ie. better job, better sex ;), tons of energy, better sleep, more vacations, etc.

Norma: That sounds like a plan. I will be recuperating from eye surgery next week so someone else will have to plan it. I nominate you Norma. LOL!!!

Penni,

What do you think? Should we do this another time? Maybe we can set it for a week in advance so that others can make arrangements.

      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!
