Congratulations on the grandbaby. They're fun aren't they? I have one and a second on the way in April. Can't wait!! Your pics are so inspiring. I'm down 56lbs after 9 mos post-op and getting kind of depressed. The scales have only went down 5lbs over the last 3 months. :-( Don't know what to do and my Dr is 5 hrs away. I need to call but I keep thinking the numbers have GOT to start dropping soon!

Thanks for the pick me up with the pics and keep up the good work. You are awesome!!

Hi Everybody!

I'm new here! I just got approved by my insurance and I am 2 to 3 weeks from surgery.

I'm 44. Married for 14 years with a 10 and 6 year old.

I live in Hawaii and I'm SO over avoiding the beach! I'm beyond excited that within a year I won't feel like I need to!

Hello, I'm new to this forum. I've lost 94# since surgery 4/30/13 in about 5 months or so. What an amazing journey. #fabulousme@43 :-)

Congratulations and your right. The 40's are the new 20's (only with a little more maturity restraint, lol)!

      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!
