I was doing so good until a couple of weeks ago.

I fell and broke my ankle and had to have surgery and a plate put in my ankle.

Now I am off my foot for at least 8 more weeks. There goes my walking. Granted I never was into ex cerise but I was really being good about walking. Now that is totally out.

I have not been able to get on a scale for a couple of weeks, plus all this stuff on my foot and leg I would weigh more anyway.

I feel like I am eating right and not much at all but sitting all this time I feel like everything is going straight to my butt.

Well I guess I will find out tomorrow. I go for my 6 week follow up with Dr. Nick.

Unfortunately life doesn't stop just because we have wls hun. Accidents happen and sometimes you have to get over one thing before you can concentrate on another.

Rest your ankle and you will, hopefully be able to start walking again before too long. xx

Shy Lady: I know it has to be hard with the broken ankle but I looked at your stats....you are doing incredibly well....relax, maybe it will be a little slower than you would like, let yourself heal, give yourself permission to watch tv, read a book, don't worry about the exercise....you will get better, you will be fantastic. Good luck.

You are doing great and I bet you will lose while you are off of your feet. I severed a tendon a year ago (before my sleeve) and my weight dropped unexpectedly. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised. If not...hey you will lose this weight, step by step is what I tell myself every day.

Make sure you hang in there with your Protein so you can heal quickly. It'll be okay. Good luck to you!

      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!
