I can't believe I am opening up like this



Recommended Posts

I have so many feelings, trials and triumphs with the band and I feel like I can't talk to anyone since no one really wants to hear what I am going through.

Soooo I started a blog to get it all out there. Take a peek, I just started today and plan to post often to get it all off my chest.

Follow me on my journey, I think it will give me some accountability too when I know people are watching.

I keep thinking about starting a blog. It's therapeutic, you know? I also had to chuckle about your donuts comments. I, like you, LOVE me some donuts. Especially fresh from the bakery. Haven't had one since the surgery. (Insert sigh here...) But, I'm handling it well.

I was telling a friend of mine today that food is my crack. I need to find a new drug of choice. (Maybe broccoli? Ha!)

By the way, AWESOME weight loss! How are you doing it? I hope to be down like 40 lbs by July. (Total- not from now til July)

      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!
