*gasp* Nsv



Recommended Posts

Huge NSV!!! So I was at work today and they started a "biggest loser" contest. Everyone donates 10 dollars and the highest percentage of weight lost wins the pot. So of course i'm in. I've been riding my bike and doing the elliptical. I SWEAR to you that 3 people came up to me today telling me I was so skinny I didn't need to lose weight? It felt fantastic but it's hard for me to believe them. I am still 15 lbs from goal but I do feel great about myself. But someone actually called me skinny...and wondered why I was trying to lose weight. THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!

What a lovely thing to hear! I'll bet you looked like a cat that has fallen into a plate of fresh cream and those words had to be music to your ears and heart.

Congratulations!

      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!
