Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Broke My Heart, but had to do it!



Recommended Posts

My next door neighbor had the gastric bypass surgery a month ago. I am giving her my shrunken-out-of jeans now. She is just starting to fit into them. In my lapband support group, we have started talking about a clothing exchange. Considering the fact that I went a little nuts when I suddenly hit regular sizes, and now those things I bought are already starting to get too big, I think helping each other out by handing down clothes makes sense.

Clothing exchange is a great idea. But I do not have a group I can go to (they're all by-pass people so I couldn't relate). So I took two closets of clothes to the consignment store-- got lots of credit to "purchase" the new sizes as I go down!

If you are looking for a way to get rid of that Yankees gear, as a Sox fan, I'm sure I could find a use for it. Burning that in my fireplace would keep me warm for hours :)

Kidding of course!! CONGRATULATIONS on your weight loss.

      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.

        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!
