1 month Post op to the day and the total is....



Recommended Posts

Well guys I am exactly 1 month post op today and I weighed at the gym this afternoon. I am exactly 41 pounds down!!! I can not believe it. I am very tall and had alot to lose so I am just now starting to see the weight loss in my clothes and see it in certain areas of my body. I am so excited. I think I am starting to get a feel for how slow to eat and chewing. But then in a few weeks I go to solid foods so I am sure that will just stir it up again. Thank you to everyone for the last month and prior to that and all your support. :001_wub:

Congratulations!

Even when you trim down, expect your head to take a long time to catch up. I'm about 50 pounds down now, and my head STILL hasn't caught up, even though my clothes are just falling off me.

Whooo hooooo!!! You are doing so awesome! Did you take before pics? If so you should definitely take some comparison shots! The # on the scale is great but I actually recognized it in myself so much more when I saw the pics.

I'm so proud of you yay!

Dickson - nope no complications everything went really well. Just normal post op stuff

Christi - I plan on taking pics but I was afraid I wouldn't notice enough of a distance and get discouraged.

      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!
