Woohoo! I've gone from a size 26 to a size 16 in 5 months! :D

*shows everyone the jeans she's wearing*

It was recently said in another thread that I'm having problems with my food choices. Err.. I'd like to correct that. I have not cheated on myself even once. Sorry to disappoint. :D

Thanks everyone! :D

My first pics were at the -50 lbs mark, although my before pics weren't taken at my highest weight in December 05 when I started the pre-op diet. I'm only 27 pounds from the second 50 pounds gone so I'm going to wait for that before I post more pics. I'm guessing that will happen in about 3 more moths.

This is realy starting to get exciting! Thanks for sharing the joy with me. *hugs*

The band is not an easy tool to work. I think you're doing an incredible job. Keep up the good work. It is very motivating even for those of us who are no longer banded. Do you have a journal with your food logs posted? I understand if you choose not to do that, but would love a little insight as to what you're eating. If you don't mind sharing you could PM me. I'm maintaining my weight so far in the 5 weeks since my band slipped, but am in need of some inspiration.

Thanks:)

Jacqui - *laughs* Don't count on it. While my rear is shrinking there are other areas that aren't co-operating as well. Like my boobs.. and my mouth. *laughs*

      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!
