My Journey. 290 lbs



Recommended Posts

Hello I love this form and have decided I am going to do a very detail journey review. I am hoping this will help others as it will help me. I will have many youtube videos pics what I eat. My pants size ect. Every detail I can think of. I want to start by my age 30 290lbs 5'9. I start my 2 week liquid diet on the 29th. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I have downloaded My Fitness Pal and order that step counter and scale that sync with it. Awesome going to love that. Next I have my Protein Shakes ready to go. I am having my surgery done in Mexico Dr. Kuri. Jan 11th 2012 Will update all of that information also. Have already made my apt for my fill Dr afterwards. Set my workout schedule and purchase a new pair of tennis shoes. Thank you for letting me post. Talk to you again soon.

Great job! Sometimes we have to take this in baby steps and taking it one day at a time is a great way to do it. One day closer. :)

As for "a new Dawn"... no kudos for me, since my name is Dawn I came up w/ it pretty easy.

      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!
