I'm 5'6" and when I started out I was 267, and in a 20...pretending I was in an 18 (like it was really any better,lol)... I'm now at 236, and in a 16 or 18 depending on the cut and where I bought the jeans... I cannot wait to be able to shop in ANY store!!!

I can't wait either aj! I wouldn't mind being in a 14-16. I do not want to be too small but at the same time I want to be able to shop at regular stores.

I'm 5'5" started out at 295 squeezing into a 28 pant. Currently, I'm at 220 and a size 20 in some pants! I think technically a size 21 (yay for being in between sizes! Not!) right now.

When I weighed 180 I was a size 16 and hoping I will be again! My goal is 160 lbs so we'll see how it goes!

      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!
