Wow! A size 8...... for the first time in my adult life I'm in a single digit...



Recommended Posts

I tried on a pair of Levi's the other day at Macy's and I thought I'd check the 8's to see how much further I'd need to go to fit into them. They fit perfectly! I didn't buy them because they were $60 but I went home and ordered a pair of Gap white pants size 8 from Ebay. They arrived today - didn't expect them to fit. Figured they'd hang on my door until I could fit into them. Just need to hem them a little! They fit perfectly!

In almost 2 yrs I've lost 97 lbs - with about 16 left to the 135 goal I have. I'm getting married on Dec 3 and would love to lose it by then....

Congrats on your size 8. I haven't banded yet, I'm still in the preliminary stages. I plan to attend a seminar and begin my 6 month long dietician history. Then i'm on my way. Keep up the good work.

Thanks to everyone 4 your kind responses. I hope to be at 135 by my wedding in Dec. Today I feel fat. I had a docs appt today (my primary, not my wls doc) and he told me it looked like I gained weight! Uh, I've lost about 8 lbs since I've seen him. My fiance thinks he's crazy, but it made me feel really bad....

      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!
