Ok, I'll give it a try, but the guys at work are look at me funny. :lol: But it's not like they don't already think I'm strange.

I'd think you'd be used to the funny looks from the guys at work by now, then! Isn't that the new normal?

I am pretty much used to it, but I still want them to think I'm an "outie" not an "innie". :o

So, depends on how you define "woman issues," now, doesn't it? Could be a woman you know went wacko and she (and her knife) were an issue for you...

Just sayin'

Joatsaint: There ya go! That oughta do it.

Back to the more serious original topic: BigChange - just keep reminding yourself that just because someone is nosy enough to ask doesn't mean you have to tell anything you don't want to. I think a lot of the answers that have been provided are good ideas. I generally don't recommend lying, as you then have to remember the lie or risk forgetting when someone mentions it. However, there's no issue at all with simply not giving all the info, or any at all if you choose not to.

      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!
