One pound away!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Holy moly!!! I didn't think I'd ever be able to say this so quickly!!!! at just over 3 months out........

I am ONE pound away from my original goal of 160!!!!!

I know from looking in the mirror that I Still have a ways to go, so I've reset my ticker to lose more. But I truly thought I was dreaming to ask to hit the 160s.

My strategy was to mix things up all the time. I try to stay around 30-40 carbs each day. But I don't fret if I'm over, because there are other days I'm under. I go to the gym hardcore for a couple weeks, then go down to a few days a week to recover. I mainly just try to keep my body guessing. So far it's worked well for me. I have a 5k run in a couple weeks. Not sure if I'm going to be able to run the whole thing, but I'm certainly going to try.

For any of you out there thinking and researching this surgery.......just do it!!! It's truly one of the best things that has happened to me. And not just on the outside. I am more upbeat and confident in myself. I'm even looking at buying the bakery I work at to run it!!! Any business owners out there that can give me some advice??? : )

      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.
