And I don't have far to come! It takes a long time to see yourself differently. Even now at times I see myself still at 256! Look for NSVs. Like getting into and out of the car, a booth in a restaurant. squeezing through spaces I did not think I would fit!

You are doing great girl!

Indee, like being able to wrap yourself in a normal size bath towel, or crossing your legs under your desk!!!

I agree wholeheartedly!! Like sitting on an airplane and not have to worry about being uncomfortable or making the person next to you feel that way. I miss riding roller coasters too!!! One day soon I pray!!

I've always been able to pick out something I liked about myself, but when I'm around others it's hard. I end up judging myself harder than anyone. I'm working on it though.

My nicknames at work are big girl and fluffy. One of my co workers,who use to tease me, got offended when I called myself big girl. I really got attached to that name. I have to catch myself now when I call myself these names, because I don't have that body anymore. I feels good to hear them say: girl, your are losing that weight.

      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!
