Leigha, and responders, thanks for the positively delightful post. I was actually smiling and nodding as I checked off all the items in the lists.

The description of the tree branch, or tree log of a crossed leg is so funny. Crossing and uncrossing my legs now makes me giddy. I actually have to do this because my butt bone gets sore and I have to uncross and cross to lean the other direction time and again!

Shoes tied in the...middle! Is this crazy or what!

Just yesterday, I was in TJ Max trying on shoes. Not only could I put on the athletic shoe without unbuttoning my pants and hoisting my leg.... with both hands...yes, by the cuff, but also I dared to try on a ...high heeled shoe.

That had a strap to buckle around the ankle.

Sitting on the little bench at the end of the isle, I casually, as if I do this every day, put the shoe on, and then put my foot with the high heel shoe on it, UP ON THE BENCH beside me, still sitting, shoe on my foot at my side, and buckled the strap around the ankle. I'm sure everything went into slow motion and I heard Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get it On” playing in the background.

      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!
