I have no idea what rate I will lose weight as I get closer to goal - this may be far too ambitious. But I'm going to go for it!

Well, not quite the week I was hoping for... but it will happen

Ok by Thanksgiving I want to be under 150! That's a bout 18 pounds! And right now I'm in a Stall! Anyone want to join in' date=' what's your goal?[/quote']

I'll join you in your stall :P Oh wait I'm already there LOL It's my first so I am not complaining. I always want to ask when I see your name...are you from Alaska? I thought I was the lone sleever LOL

So I'm 155.1 which is just a pound and a half above the "overweight" category for my height (I'm still obese dang it). I'd like to be 145, fully "overweight" but no longer obese :) I'm also spending thanksgiving with my in laws and none of them have seen me as my husband did when he met me (ok I was 110 then LOL so that's a ways away) but it would be nice to be smaller than they've ever seen me!

Let the games begin!

I'm in--I'm 175 now and my loss has slowed considerably, so I'm going to set "under 170" as my Thanksgiving goal. Tryna be realistic... :)

      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!
