I go back to the doc tomorrow and I'll find out how much I weigh. I'm both excited AND really nervous...

How did it go?

WOOHOO! Under 200 lbs weighed in at 198 lbs today :*)

Congratulations! That is an awesome accomplishment. I'm a little sad I'm not there yet but happy that someone else from our surgery date made it :) I feel a little closer every day ... I'm OCD about weighing myself.

Not so great. I lost a disappointing 12.5lbs. :(

My doc thought it was just fine (35lbs since surgery) but I think it's too low.

Oh well, a loss is a loss I guess. I'm going to focus on getting all my Water in and get my fat butt on the recumbent bike consistently. Otherwise I'm doing everything by the book. SIGH.

Don't beat yourself up. That's a great weight loss! Think about what it was like before surgery. For me, it was never consistent. But now, every week I lose weight. Sometimes it's a lot; sometimes it's not...and sometimes I stay the same, but I don't gain. In the long run, it's not how fast you lose weight, it's just the fact that you lost it.

You'll get there. We all will. And in our own time.

Thank you so much! I had a great day yesterday. I was wearing size 22 pants and they were getting overly baggy so I went to buy a pair of 20s and found that I actually fit an 18 with a stretch waist!!! Yay!! :) You are right. I'll just embrace my own path. I really appreciate your words of encouragement.

I can't believe it. I've been saving a bunch of clothes thinking I won't be able to wear them for another 10 pounds. But I tried them on just now & I can wear them! In fact, three pair were too big! Best decision ever!

I am OCD too so I do not have a scale I only allow myself to visit hubby at work once a week and weigh in there.

      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!
