Ive lost 70% EWL in 6 months



Recommended Posts

I had 116 pounds to lose to get to the top of "normal" on BMI charts.... I've lost 82 pounds as of yesterday.... makes for 70% excess weight loss....

My surgeon says he considers anything over 50% a success....fortunately my goals are loftier... I will lose 136 pounds and then maybe an additional 10 vanity pounds...the latter may not ever happen but Im sure as heck gonna try.

I had no real co-morbs before surgery ....achy knees....swollen feet.... I went from squeezing into size 10 shoes to a size 9 with a lil room to spare... and I had a few achy joints last month that the Dr attributed to my body adjusting to weight loss, bones shifting, etc....

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
