Looks great to me! Your boobs look really good! And your torso ; have you had any plastics or is that hard work? Curious I'm just starting out and freezing the loose skin and no boobs.

You look amazing! The only people who would be unkind are heartless anyway and have to talk about others to make themselves feel good because they normally don't have any self esteem!! So go on girl..wear that bikini proudly!

Thank you all! :) I'm feeling so great, and it just doesn't seem to come down from this constant high!! Life is truly truly better on the other side. Is life perfect? Of course not, but not having the fat suit on all day I have to say has made it all worth going through.

Hugs!! Keep fighting every single day, and never ever give up! Wake up every morning with a new opportunity to work towards making it a great day, that is how I worked my program - and it works... it really does!

Now, for the record - I have had breast augmentation and some liposuction in my problem areas. However that is all I've had, I have NOT had any skin removal whatsoever. I do plan to in the future, so I can only imagine how amazing my results will be once I'm healed up from all that.

GOOD LUCK AND BLESSINGS!!!

      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!
