Recommended Posts

Still on mushies for another week but amazed at how much weight ive lost. I want to lose about 90 all together so im pretty happy. It hasnt been easy though. Emotionally harder than I expected. Some days im not sure i did the right thing. I really miss over eating. Crazy isnt it!

I remember talking with someone before having surgery and he said it's like losing your best friend and how you go through a mourning of sorts. I agree. Early on, I had days where I struggled with it, missing food. It gets easier.

Now I am struggling with thinking my last fill was a little too much and having trouble getting solids down. I have been struggling emotionally with it (I will see the surgeon this week) but I didn't want to jump the gun and let things settle for a few days.

Stay strong, we can do this and you deserve a healthier and happier you!!!! :)

Good luck to you.

It does get easier but every once in a while I find myself wishing I could eat a chicken wing dripping in bleu cheese dressing....like the gal sitting across from me at the restaurant I went to tonight. Then she got up to use the restroom and I got a reality check. Those 12 wings she ingested attached themselves right to her bottom. I just smiled to myself and my husband reminded me it wasn't the place for my lap band lecture. Lol ( I am kidding about that last part... I would never approach a stranger about dieting.....) I am not kidding about really wanting that wing.

      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!
