Thank you for all the replies, wow what a lot of new faces on here! I cannot believe it's almost been a year! The restriction is what keeps me on the right track! I can eat more than when I first was fully healed but It has been enough to keep losing, slowly. One of these days I will start working out and who knows where I'll be! No less than 140 though, although I am short I do not look good less then 135-ish it makes me look gaunt. I think in the next few months I will see how close I can get to 140 and I know I will be happy there until I can get my TT which is at least 4 years down the road when I get this paid off.

To those in a stall from holy %$#@. I was stalled out at 160 for a very long time, I slowly creeped down to 153 where I sat for about 6-8 weeks, I honestly thought to myself, well Ang. this is it, this is where your helping hand stops. To my surprise the sleeve is still rocking! Too all that may read, don't underestimate yourself or this surgery!

And I found this picture of myself from May of 09' my husband said the other day how hard it is for him to see a difference sometimes, that is until I told him to look at this!

Yipeeee! My doctor told me it would take a year, so I think you are right on track. Now how about 140 lbs? You can do it!

I haven't weighed myself in weeks. I was stalled at 153 for about 6-8 weeks, after the initial upset I just decided not to worry and just not weight myself! I decided to weight myself and exactly 11 months from my surgery here I am!

Now a lot of people have met goal A LOT sooner then me, that's ok, I do not go to a gym, I do not walk for miles and miles, I'm just playing the what comes of comes off game, I do not deprive myself of food, I eat good, I eat bad. I don't stress. And here I am. Thanks

      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?

        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.
