I am not from philly but you can get support and encouragement by using my fitness pal and becoming friends with other bandsters. You can track your progress and eating diary openly so people can see- that should make you feel less alone

Why are you scared? Just go in and work on you. You have no reason to be afraid. One thing about the weight loss journey everyone must learn is that you have to be strong and courageous. If you aren't, fake it until you are. Courage is what will help you to make better decisions at the family dinners, ask the waiter for modifications to your order. It will also help you to go to the gym. Call planet fitness beforehand and set up a training session. The trainer will introduce you to the equipment and help you to develop a blueprint for your workouts. After that, focus on you and no one else while you are there. Good luck!

      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!
