I started a new committment to myself yesterday. I started with flushing my system out with Water and I ate a lite Protein dinner last nite. So for the next 9 days I will be doing more drinking than eating . That's what my mouth says (as my bestfriend often tells me:heh: ) It's more about disciplin than anything else, cause I need to prove to myself that I can follow rules for at least 10 days. Yesterday I did a B-. It would've been an A if I had done some excerise, but I went to Church last nite to feed the Spirtual man.

I can do all things thru Christ who strengthens me. Going into focus mode:huytsao I don't know what that face actually mean, but it reminds me of my youngest son:heh:

I am gaining some confidence along the way!! Yesterday at work the girls were looking at my butt and said that I actually am getting the shape of a butt now and that I needed some smaller uniforms again!! That made me feel really good but a little strange at the same time knowing people were looking at my butt...lol...I need to sit down a little bit more at work...lol

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
