Half Way to Goal -- Horay!



Recommended Posts

I started out at 338 pounds, and still weighed 317 when I was banded on November 1st, 2010. My goal is to get down to 200 pounds.

As of today, I'm down to 267 pounds, so I've officially passed the halfway point toward reaching my goal! 70 pounds lost, and 68 pounds to go.

It's SO NICE to finally have my "left to lose" number SMALLER than my "already lost" number! HAPPY HUMP DAY TO ME!

Good for you!!! I was banded on October 15 and I'm a little more than a 1/3 of the way to my goal. It's so nice when the scale is moving in the right direction. Good luck!

      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!
