Hi Liz. I also have about 200 to lose. It sometimes seems impossible, but dedication and endurance will get us through it. There are SO many wonderful supportive people on here that will help.

I have 168 lbs. to lose. Surgery is July 16. My brother had the rny this past November and he is now down 150 lbs. So I know it can happen and it can happen in 6 months and not years. I just have to do what I'm told. I also plan to get a personal trainer at my gym for some lessons. I'm a league bowler and the season starts in August and my Doctor said I would be ready to bowl 2nd week in August. I'm in 4 leagues and really didnt want to run around trying to find substitutes. Now I can get back to the swing of things and not miss any time.

I am down around 131 lbs. Sometimes it's 129. I really would like to lose another 10. Those of you below 160- are you having the same struggles as I?

Jumping in. Congrats to all of you. I am scheduled for band removal to RNY on 2/25/13 (quite the wait) so am checking to see how everyone is doing and trying to find some tricks for success.

I am 60 and have 108# to lose. They actually want me to lose 118# but I am 5'5" and weighed 130 in high school and was not considered overweight. I am "well-endowed" and I think that 120# would be too thin for me. I would be perfectly happy wearing a size 10/12. All of my excess weight is in the middle which is extremely unhealthy.

Hi Thynnlynn, my revison from band to bypass is in 3 weeks. I'm 56, 5'6", similar story. How has it been going for you? I hear those that have a revision loose the weight more slowly. What has been your experience?

      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!
