Excuse me, I seem to have misplaced 100 pounds...



Recommended Posts

That's right! I met the 100 pound mark AND I'm only four pounds to my mid point. I was so excited about this that I went to the NewBalance store to treat myself to a new pair of walking shoes... and I allowed the awesome cute young sales rep encourage this 260 pound, 41 year old woman into a pair of RUNNING shoes and he pointed me in the right direction to study up on proper form to avoid injury (www.goodformrunning.com)... I downloaded the couch 2 5K app and tried day one today.... LOL, I only made it 1/3 of the way through... which represents a grand total of just three minutes running but it felt GREAT (once I could breathe again)... I'll keep trying it three or four days a week until I can complete the entire session, then move on to the next level. My goal is to run albeit very, very slowly, the Halloween 5K fun run this year. What a difference a hundred pounds makes!

Wow! Way to go!

I like New Balance, they always fit me well. What a great purchase! You invested in your health and success. You will make it down to lean and mean for sure.

I splurged on the best shoes I could find. I have used them to the max.

I totally applaud you for getting new shoes. Our feet are extremely important to take care of. :) Did you buy smaller shoes? :)

      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!
