I realized today I weigh less than what my drivers license says I do, which was a "wishful thinking" number too start with! Thank goodness they dont call you on it! I always figure DMV & police must look at the weights people have down for themselves & laugh. I think when I hit goal Im going to insist on a new license with my real weight & a new pic & then find reasons to get pulled over just so I can show it off ~lol.

My driver's license says 158 and the picture was taken 3 days before my surgery weighing in at 235!! You wouldn't even recognize me in the pic, I tell you bad angles at the DMV!!! My friends or I should say my 11 year old girl's friends like to look at it for a good laugh!! Told myself I would get a new one when I reached my goal and could be honest about the weight. Time to get myself in there for a new picture!

It did make for a good post on Facebook when I wrote I finally weighed what my driver's license said!

This one may be nasty, but I used the potty on a high stool and was able to reach around without throwing out my back. :)

      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!
