Recommended Posts

My boyfriend is just the same..until I bought a new pair of Tanga Panties and a new bra..he wasn't allowed to get into them until he told me how i looked :)

Just a suggestion! It gets the point across and you get something sexy out of it!

My hubs didn't start saying things to me until we were out with some friends and they were telling me how great I looked. I think he needed to see that I *liked* hearing these comments. Now he says stuff all the time to me. :) Thank goodness it's all GOOD stuff... not like "Wow, your butt sure is saggy." LOL Well, it IS saggy, but he knows I don't want to hear that.

Boys! Honestly, I've come home with my hair cut short and a very different colour and neither my hubby nor teen son noticed - even the dog was looking at me funny!

Try asking "Can you see anything different about me?" and twirl around. If nothing else it will make him sweat...

My hubby would be just as likely to respond with "oh that, well you've had that surgery so what did you expect?", as if that makes it not worth commenting on.

Of course if you are getting into shape and he's not, he may be feeling pressure to do something himself. Or fearful a more complementary Prince Charming will take you away.

It may also be emotional. He's been on the roller coaster with you all these years and wants to be supportive by actually not saying anything.

      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.

      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!
