Wow, Indiogirl, I see you've lost to goal plus nine! How do you feel about that additional nine lbs and are you trying to stabilize? Congrats on getting it all off! We'll have to get together when I get back there in late September.

Thanks Shir - I feel fantastic !!! I really want the 150 which would make my total loss 100 lbs - My original goal was 170 - didn't think I would make it then got to 180 and pushed goal to 160 again never really beleived I would get there (I have never gotten to goal on any diet/program that I have ever been on)

I am going to Vegas next weekend need a casual elagent dress - got a beatiful one - size 10 form fitting - my pants are 6's or 8's - I am feeling great - I have had a couple pple say they didn't recongize me :redface:

Yep when you get here in Sept we can get together - Phyl should be getting here in Oct or early November...

Indiegirl, Wow, those are some GREAT numbers! I'm extremely jealous and encouraged to hang in there. The whole thing about having so many pounds to drop in the first place is what held me back before I got the band and now the idea that it's all possible is mind boggling! I've tried every which way to get that goal counter on my profile. Do I cut and paste it into my signature? I just had this idea in the middle of the night and am going to give it a try. I guess ideas come to me slowly... duh!

Got my knee fixed (torn meniscus) and am having an easy time of it recovering. Just had it done Friday morning and already went to the movie last night with hubby, so that's quick. The leg's a bit stiff but I'm doing the exercises and it will loosen up soon. Bandage comes off Monday morniing and replaced with bandaids - looking forward to that.

Thanks for your encouraging email! You are a SUPER success story! Congratulations!!

      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!
