Feeling like i made a mistake...



Recommended Posts

I am gonna follow you. Please do the same for me. We will encourage one another. One day at a time. You arent alone nor am I. Thanks for the reminder :)

Now I am gonna go for a walk because I live in Arizona and its only 7:40am....I am hoping it is under 100 degrees.

Chemicalruth, I am also in Arizona. I had my kids unfold my treadmill so I can walk today. I abhor the heat!

Everyone else - thank you for your kind, encouraging words! I feel best in the mornings and my attitude dwindles as the day goes forward.

I finally took some pictures today so I can watch my progress.

I had my surgery the 21st too. I am finally over the gas pains and now I'm just dealing with the pain from the actual surgery. It is very tolerable but aggravating when moving at all. I had the OMG moment yesterday myself but I'm a lot better today. I look forward to the weight loss.

I had my surgery 5/30/13. Since then I have been in the E.R., had my port site get infected with a hematoma. It is still healing and just Thursday I started getting horrible pains in stomach area. So yes I have questioned my decision to do this to myself. I am only 3 weeks in and I am going through it big time. However, I keep telling myself once this is all over with I'll be even stronger. I get down some days but I always remember I did this for a reason. 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!
