Woke up in Twoderville this morning!



Recommended Posts

:D Well, it finally happened after the biggest granddaddy of all stalls!!! I am now down 81 lbs and woke up this morning and weighed. When the scale read 299.4 I rubbed my eyes to be sure they just weren't blurry!!! :D

Sorry I've been AWOL lately from the board. Been busy with life...

~ I started back to school for my RN refresher course.

~ I went to a bariatric support group get together. It was high Protein, low carb and great company. The hostess is about 2 yrs out and she gave me a PILE of gorgeous designer clothes. Some very nice work suits and dress clothes. Some fit now, some will fit soon and some down the road. It was such a thrill. I was really tickled. :P

Well, that's all the news from me!

Take care everybody!

Oh, the clothes are great! And being able to actually wear some of them now is soooooo awesome!

I must confess, I never really had a stall until 2 weeks ago. Then I began wrestling with the same 4 lbs. All the while, I was getting smaller in my clothes, but just couldn't get past that 300 lb milestone. Finally, it broke this morning. I was quite happy to see that scale move. Even though my rational mind was trying to tell me not to sweat the numbers, it's hard. You want that quantitative gratification for the hard work. And finally, it happened!

A huge congratualtions! And how exciting about the clothes! There should be a better system in place for clothes sharing! I've already got a big box gathering of things that no longer fit! And as opposed to past "diets" when I always saved my "big" clothes just in case, now I want to get rid of them forever!

      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!
