13 Weeks Out And Over Halfway To Goal!



Recommended Posts

I can't believe it's just over 3 months and I'm already halfway there! Imagine if I actually added exercise to the program (which I will in Jan)!!

I am so excited! I am down to a 12 petite pants and had to buy new clothes smile.png

Knee pain...gone

feet hurting....nope

walk up those stairs...YES! I even spent an entire day walking and shopping and never once got winded or tired. I am real close to having prominent collarbones again. Here's the biggie....I can wear my wedding ring again!!! This was my NSV goal!

I do have real bad arms though. My arms never grew normally. They had this HUGE "u" shaped fat roll thing real close to my armpit and the rest towards my elbow was not huge. Now that it is shrinking, it is going to leave a long flap of skin sad.png I also noticed my butt is looking flat and saggy. Hopefully I can correct the butt issue in the gym.

Anyway, I am sooooo happy with the sleeve smile.pngsmile.pngsmile.png

Merry Christmas Everyone!

So happy for you! Great Job! Even though stuff is starting to sag or hang it's better to have that then having it filled with "stuffing" lol =) Merry Xmas to you also!

Thank You everybody! I remember whining because nobody has mentioned my weight loss. Well, to this day nobody has mentioned it....and I do not care :)

I am comfortable in my own skin again and do not need validation from anybody!

      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.

      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!
