I want to go Skydiving!!! Zip lining , learn to swim. I am going to swim with dolphins and go snorkeling. Travel and enjoy my new healthy life!

Develop my sense of style. Being overweight you don't get much of a choice. Putting my self out there and finding a partner!

CROSSFIT! I have done it in the past but I'm sorry' date=' I know they say its scale-able but if you are heavier than about 230 pounds you are going to hurt yourself and/or your joints. My plan is to power down to as light as I can get as fast as I can (ideally about 200) pounds then start crossfit ASAP to take me the rest of the way.[/quote']

I started crossfit years ago and just got back into it 7 weeks post op and I feel like it's helping me. I started at 290 in Nov and I'm 245 right now... It's scalable you just can't push yourself to something your body isn't capable in doing yet. Good luck

I'd like to take dance classes, wear high heels and cute sun dresses, meet Kenny Chesney, be at the pool or beach and not be afraid of taking off my clothes.

The first thing I wanted to be able to do was just be able to cross my legs and the first time I realized my legs were crossed I cried! Simple things are what get me, like wearing heels all day, fitting in between stuff, sounds boring but I too had a list like a lot of you, skiing, zip lining, skydiving and I always thought I hadn't done these things because I was too fat, in part that was the reason but turns out mostly it's cause I'm a prissy wuss! Lol

      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!
