I was able to JOG a quarter of a mile. I was sooooooooo excited to jog. I have never jogged since being fat. I was so proud of myself. I end up walking a little bit over 2.5 miles. When I got home it was the best sleep I had ever had.:notagree I want to see if I can jog a quarter every other day for a month and then move to jogging 1/2 a mile.:clap2:

Best of luck Jay!!! I am just going to stick to walking up to Thompson and back and riding my bike. Jogging has never really appealed to me. I hope it is your magic bullet to get you below that 200 goal!

Wow, that's awesome! Jogging is very difficult for me - I don't think I breathe right. I immediately get a stitch in my side if I try.

Keep up the good work!! Pretty soon you'll be running a marathon!!

:first:

Awesome! I hate jogging so I think it's an NSV in itself that you motivated yourself to jog, and then you get another NSV for actually being able to job!

So, 2 gold stars for you my friend!

Woot! that's wonderful! I remember the first time I was able to run for the bus, a full block, without even thinking about it, I just ran for it.

Woot! way to go! and keep up the good work.

Well hell I don't know where this comment fits in but I have GOT to tell somebody.

Okay here goes.........

Today for the first time in years and years and years I discovered while at work (in the lunch room) that........ get this..........."I can cross my legs again" I was so shocked that I had instinctually even attempted it. Just the attempt was amazing..... here i was trying to keep a conversation going, trying to be cool while all the time I wanted to jump up and tell the world. Wow what a day ! yahoooooooo

I just had to jump in and so OMG I had the exact same experience last week. Only I did jump up and tell one of my co-workers (she has been a big support for me)

Way to go!

      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!
