I stepped on the scale today and almost passed out. It said.... 135.4!!!!!!! Oh my gosh.... I can't believe it! That was my weight when I got 13 years ago at age 19. Only 10 more to go! It's amazing!

135 is my goal. I don't ever remember weighing less than 150. Got down to 144 last year (when I got married) but then in the last year I had complications with my band and gained 24 lbs. I recently lost 12 of those and my goal is still 135. I would Celebrate if I were you! I'm now at 156 (as of this morning) so I still have over 20 lbs to go but I'm hoping to lose those by May 6th (when we're going on an Alaskan cruise!). I'd like my size 8's to be too big! Right now, they barely button...

Congrats to you. Mind me asking how tall you are? I'm asking cuz I'm 5' 5" and my drs goal for me was 150. Mine is 135. But I was 9 lbs from that goal last year and had to wear a shawl with my sleeveless dress cuz of my backfat. So I'm wondering if I need to drop my goal to maybe 130?

      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!
