Best Thing I Have Ever Done



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved 9/12/2011, a day that changed my life forever. I had my surgery at UCLA and had the best care and after care. I have bloodwork done every three months and my dietician is the best. So for I have lost 60 lbs. don't get me wrong I feel great but in the last month or so I have lost my motivation. I have kept my food intake under control but the Excerise is just not happening. I work 40 hours at a very stressful job where I am at a computer all day. So I haven't lost anything. I'm stuck anyone have advice, a pep talk.....

DebbieDeb you have made great progress so far! Don't give up! I know the mention of exercise can sound like a four letter word, but it is a piece of the weightloss puzzle. I started out slow with walking 20 mins a day 3 days a week. Now, after 6 months I'm running 4 days a week, but that was MY goal. Find YOUR goal and do it (literally write it down and put it on the fridge...I did!) You've got the ultimate tool to help you! Grab a buddy to walk with you. You CAN do this, girl! Stay strong, stay focused.

      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!
