Good grief. This is a scary leap of faith for most of us. I was a smoker who loved beer, hated exercise, and was completely addicted to food. I was not ready mentally to have this surgery. It was terrifying to enter into unknown territory.

Now I'm down 75 lbs. and guess what? I'm smoking again (bad, I know), now I drink wine and some mixed drinks, I still don't exercise and I eat out all of the time. AND I'm still losing weight.

I'm no failure and no person can tell me if I had a right to go through this process.

Plus....I'm lookin' pretty damn good and having a hellofa time.

So please explain to me why you are calling people failures and not SUPPORTING them??? You know' date=' you sound a lot like my ex husband. Always negative, never supportive and loved to put people down because he thought he was GOD![/quote']

There is no word of failure. However I'm done. I realize some people are not truly not ready they want to be. I wish you all the best of luck and as time goes on your health is put first

      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!
