Just Keep Swimming! -- Dory the Fish :cursing:

Simple, but it works for me. :biggrin:

I really like this though:

"Some succeed because they are destined to; most succeed because they are determined to." -by Anatole France.

Thanks for that LilMissBand-Aid! :tongue2: I might just have to fit that in my signature, you are right, it really is inspiring . . . and I'm determined to succeed here!

Great Quotes all!

A favorite of mine..." Happiness is but a state of mind...anytime you want, you can cross the state line." Bob Dylan.

"Life is a journey, enjoy the ride" or better known as...."Sit down, shut up, buckle up and hang on! It's going to be a bumpy ride!" :biggrin:

Some of my favorites:

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Mark Twain

Nothing beats a failure but a try!

Noone can make you feel inferior without your consent - Elenor Roosevelt

And the one that is in my signature line:

What I do today is important because I am paying a day of my life for it. What I accomplish must be worthwhile because the price is high.

It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power.

Two of my favorites...

"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." -Wayne Gretzky

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO! What a ride!"

      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.

        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!
