I also failed my challenge but I did lose 6 lbs total. I think it has to do with not having a enough restriction and this constant shoulder pain I get. Hopefully on the 19th I'll find out what's going on. Congrats to everyone who made their goals and to the ones who did lose something. A loss is a loss and that's something to stay positive about!

Hey Pretty Lady!!

You DID NOT FAIL your challenge at ALL!! You lost 6lbs which is FANTASTIC!!

The ONLY people who failed this challenge are those who did not try and or care to push themselves to lose, that is NOT you!

Even though you didn't reach the heights you set for yourself, you reached for them and that is SUCCESS!!

We set goals for a reason, but the climb to get to them is what measures our success, not the goal itself. Please always remember YOU lost 6lbs! Pick up 6lbs of ground beef at the store to REALLY remind you of how much that is and how good you feel without it on your body. You ROCK!:thumbdown:

I didn't meet goal but I lost 11.2 lbs. This past week I just didn't really have the will power. I actually went up 2 lbs, but I did get them back off. I'm not really sure how, because for the last 2 days all I have wanted to do is eat. CONGRADULATIONS EVERYONE!!!

congratulations to EVERYONE who lost weight, wether it be 1 lb or more, & it does NOT matter how long or quick the weight comes off, the important thing is its coming off? & i believe it stays off if your a fast loser too

      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!
