Just got off a two week stall and I am finally below 200. I can't recall the last time I was below 200 pounds and it feels great! I have 48 pounds to goal and I know I'll get there. I have been trying to think of what has been the toughest part of this journey and I don't have a solid comment. I've had ups and downs, pain here and there, frustrations and celebrations but I'm always moving forward. I don't let the stalls get to me and when I'm in one I don't change anything. I just keep going and wait them out.

I'm an average loser and I'm ok with that. My biggest issue is tightening up all this flabby skin. I'm almost at 4 months and learn something new all the time. Anyone have any great ideas for toning legs and butt? Let's not forget my flabby stomach either!

So thankful for the sleeve and how much I've changed. I still see the old me in the mirror but the new me is starting to show up too. Good luck to everyone and remember .... it's a journey. You'll have good days and bad but WAY more good days!

59 lbs in 3 and a half months???

i think thats a "little" better than average :)

you've done great!!!! :)

when you/me were born - i always said "when i grow up i want to be in onderland!! :D "

you did it!!!!

ups and downs???

if we didn't have few bumps in the road, how boring would life be :lol:

as far as extra skin!!!

its true what "they" say that the loose skin tightens up a bit as time passes

the younger you are the better things "end up" :lol:

I'm "alittle" bit of an older "fart" - but my skin still tighten up a bit

still have loose skin of course - amazingly, only very little as far as tummy (i never had rolls or anything) :)

most of my skin is in thighs and rear end that "dropped" :angry:

i seriously don't know where my tushy went :lol:

anyone that has seen it - if you want it, its available - no charge :lol:

congrats on all your success today, tomorrow and for the rest of your longer, healthier, happier life :)

keep up the great work!!!

congrats

      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!
