When your coworker says, "girl I don't even recognize you from behind anymore" and others say, "yeah I thought we had a new nurse working here until you spoke to me. "

I have had the exact same thing said to me! Too funny! Nurses are great for our egos!

I went to good will (temporary clothing) and was looking in 18/16 instead of 24/22/20. I walk by a mirror and wonder who's next to me( it's just me) my niece saw me in street clothes (we work together) and said crap you have the size you were. Good day good Day

Auto correct. Half the size you were

*When you try on pants you bought you thought you would fit into in a month or so and they are already to big!!!

*When you can move the drivers seat up another foot and can reach the pedals without have to stretch.

* when you walk past a mirror and wonder who is in the room with you

* when your grandson (one year old)takes a while to recognize you every other weekend:)

I love getting to go to TJ max and not having to shop in plus size. I'm 3.5 months out, and have gone from a 20 to an 8/10 pant size. Almost got into a size 8 dress but my bust is still to big. I love 5hat feeling you have lots of selection and can try just about anything on.

When you start tucking your shirts into your pants because you realize that you look more slender that way than untucked, and you want to show off your new bod. :o B)

When your doctor emails you saying your cholesterol results are phenomenal and cuts your medication in half. She will recheck in 3 months and hopefully off for good!!

      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.

        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!
