Old Habits Back With Full Force!



Recommended Posts

Not sure what is going on. I don't know if I am not dealing with my problems as I should, or giving up on myself- but dang! I am in the last 23 pounds and I am eating like garbage. Things I shouldn't be eating, I am. I am not working out....and I have no drive to do it.

Why am I giving up? Why? It's only gonna get harder the farther out from surgery I get- what's up?

Anyone a year+ out and kinda hitting a wall? Ugh....

I'm not a year out but wanted to offer encouragement! Admitting you are doing something wrong is half the battle! Can you maybe work toward a few good days a week? Then every few weeks add another good day and before long you will be back to good all the time? You have done an amazing jobs, don't give up! Maybe you just mentally needed a little break?

Thanks for the post and the good advice Mememee......I feel I am starting down the same road as SparklingSarah.....I am in my home stretch with less than 10 lbs to lose but I am not eating well at all. I am doing a good job exercising and even though I'm not eating a lot of calories still (about 1200 a day) they aren't good calories....I'll take your advice and try for a few good days.....it just feels weird to see me going for junk again after all this....I am 9 months post op.

      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!
