Looks like we're the only ones around tonight Maddie. Man I love fast food. I know it's crap, but a big juicy bacon cheeseburger and fries. Yum. And taco bell, love it. A footlong subway double meat!!!!

But, everything in moderation eh? Tell yourself you'll reward yourself once a month with a trip to a fast food shack and get back on track with eating right. You don't want to spend money buying fat clothes again do you? If you did it in 2011 you can do it in 2012.

Richard Bach (Jonathan Livingston Seagull) wrote a book called "Illusions". Here's one of my favorite quotes from his book, and I highly recommend it for bandsters. "Ask for your limitations and they're yours".

In other words, If you say you can't, you won't. Enjoy the rest of your holiday and eat right K?

I can tell you what helped me stop eating fast food....I looked at the ingredients.

watch the movie "Food, Inc." .... I rarely eat fast food, and when I do I get a subway sandwich, tuna salad with extra lettuce and spinach on 9 grain honey oat.

      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!
