You look fantastic!! Pictures definately do help. If you want to see something that shocks you, pull out your driver's license and look at that photo. I hadn't even thought about it, but I was showing my ID to a checker at a store one day and she did a double-take and was staring at me. I almost got all pissy and did the angry "WHAT?" but then she handed me back my driver's license and when I looked at it I was floored.

My driving license is okay, because here you can get your own photos done, so I made sure it wasn't a pile o' doodoo. BUT OH MY GOD, my work ID is HIDEOUS. SOOOOO awful. I need to go in and get them to redo my photo. :blink:

Passport is a whole nother story. Train. wreck. Giant pink bowling ball for a face/head. Awful.

I feel your pain. No kidding, I can't stand to use the GD thing. But I have to use it all. the. time. And it doesn't expire for two more years. I must investigate what happens if I "lose" it and have to replace it... I would scan it in (along with my WRETCHED work ID) just to prove that I WIN when it comes to V. BAD PHOTOS, but I don't even want a digital record that it exists anywhere on the www. :lol:

:angry:

:(

:huh:

Pictures are great, but I forgot. What really has me encouraged is my old clothes. I'm putting on stuff from a few years ago. Some of it may be out of style but damm I look good! It may only be me but my closet sports clothes for size 30 to 46 (pants). I can cloth a ever growing baseball team. I'm going to get rid of the high and low numbers and find a nice mid point. Hey, you think bell bottoms will make a comeback? I've got some gaberdin slacks that may be a fire hazard.

      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!
