And something we need to remind ourselves... this is weight GONE FOREVER, not gone just to come back. It's nice to know, if it's 1 pound or 20, it's GONE GONE GONE! Yahoo!

Now that is the happiest thought of all!

Tomorrow is one month for me. As of tonight, I'm down 18 pounds. That is since surgery morning, not including any pre-op weight loss. I'll see if I shed anything by morning. I was hoping to be at 210 at one month so that means I need to let go of 1.8 pounds over night. :thumbup: It doesn't really matter to me. I feel like my body is changing and I'm feeling good. The weight is going to come off. Will it happen in 6 months? Who the heck knows but this is for the long haul.

I think you're doing great Diane!

Great attitude Lee, you really are doing good:thumbup1:

I am gonna let your attitude rub off on me!

Thanks

thanks all! i know i must tell myself these things, to keep motivated and moving forward... being that i had the band, lost 80% of my goal weight, only to lose the band, gain almost ALL of that weight back... i just have to tell myself "this is it, you can do it!" and move forward one step at a time! we're on our way! best to all! :smile::smile::smile::smile::smile:

You are doing great! Remember that everyone is different. I was told so many times to take measurements and didn't and now totally regret it. It's exciting to see the clothes fall off.

      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!
