I tried to post this yesterday with my "Smart" Phone, but was having issues ...

Normal??? That doesn't usually apply to me for many reasons (LOL :cursing:), but it finally does for BMI.

As of Saturday's weigh-in, my BMI is 24.9. I'm less than 20 pounds from my goal of a 21.8 BMI. I can hardly believe it. In less than 17 weeks, I have gone from OBESE to NORMAL. How is that possible?!?!?!?!? That NEVER, NEVER, NEVER would have happened without this surgery. Yahoo!!!

Thanks to everyone for your kind words, thoughts and encouragement. The weightloss has been getting slower, but I'm going to keep plugging away. Those 20 pounds may take another 17 weeks, but they will come off. Thanks for being part of my journey!!!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
