Ok all i am finally excited again to get back on the band wagon. We had a clothing exchange at my support group meeting last night. Well i got a bunch of clothes that i thought was to small well i was trying some on today for shits and giggles just to see how far i had to go. Are you all sitting down. I have gone from a size 32 to a 26 or 24. I really didn't think these jeans were going to fit. They are regular button jeans however they are stretch denim but they don't stretch that much. I am so excited. I am wearing a pair of 24s to my nieces birthday party tomorrow.

Thats great about the size, but even better, the clothes didn't cost you anything!!!

I am down to a 20 from a 24 and can't afford to buy stuff right now. There are no exchanges or anything here. I hate my support group so don't go anymore.

Isn't great . . . I love those kinds of surprises. I have been doing a ton of "closet" shopping lately. I am already reaching the lowest limits of the smallest things I have. I might actually have to venture shopping soon.

32 to 26 is really awesome. Best of luck to quickly go to 24 . . . 22 . . . 20 . . . the skys the limit. Being banded is awesome.

You have done so well. Congratulations! Doesn't it feel so good to feel that you are a loser (of weight) but a winner in the health stakes!!

My loss has been slow, but I had more fill the other day and finally had come down nearly 5lbs so was able to finally change my ticker!! Yeah!!

      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.

      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!
