Nice to hear Juli. You will have to let us know what happens. I am still very large busted, but seriously there is no fullness and the girls, well to say they have gone south would be close. They are more like flippers :)

I would love you get reduction/lift but not sure of qualification now. A few years ago I was too fat according to insurance company.

Good luck!

Hey Ashley, I do know I can definitely eat more now, I sometimes long for that "I can only eat 2tbs" feeling. But overall realize I am within 30 lbs of goal. Weight watchers would have me weighing 145 but I am not sure that is realistic for me. How tall are you? How have you slowed? I am thinking I may need to go and do Diva's bootcamp.

Juli, can't wait to hear how it goes, keep us posted!

Hey Banana Babes,

Its good to hear everyone is doing great at this stage in the game. My doctor said unfortunately after 6 months the 'golden period' for weight loss tends to slow down considerably. I have definitely felt the effects of it and haven't really lost as quickly as before. But i haven't let it get me down, it just means its time to kick the exercise and strength training into overdrive. It's hard to believe i'm so close to my initial goal but i don't plan to stop there. Then it will be a whole new adventure of being in the promised onederland! Best wishes and love to all the banana babers, keep up the good fight!

      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!
