Hello everyone!

Yesterday's was my 4 months post-op, initial WT 270lbs HT 5' 6", today's WT 187lbs so far ha lost 83lbs, can't wait to hit my ideal wt of 140lbs off-course if my body decides to get there lol. I will take 160lbs but I would like a wt that will allow me to go up and down a bit and not to worry about and I think 140lbs is the perfect goal for it!

Hello ShrinkingDEE,

Well my wls journey has been "so far" great (knock on wood). I really can't complaint, no complications at all. I been following all the instructions - bible!! The ONLY thing is that 3wks ago I started to loss my hair which it's was to expect and there's nothing we (wls pts) can do to prevent it other than PRAYERS & follow the MD orders! So I been concentrating on my Protein intake (food wise/not shakes) and keeping myself well hydrated and hoping for the best. The good thing is that I have very thick hair and that is a PLUS in this situation.

Yeah RayBan glasses rock! :)

I started losing my hair too. It has slowed down a whole lot. I have a lot of hair too. You can only tell that it's coming out when I comb it. Thank God.

      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!
