Hello everyone! I had my life changing surgery on 11/30/11. Tomorrow is my 6 month mark, I had went from 306lbs to 208lbs. I did my first 5k in April 5th. I have been at a stand still. I have been 208/209 for about 2/3weeks. Very frustrating. My concern is gaining any or all weight back. I work night 7p to 7a the weekends. I use my fitness pal to help me watch what I eat and how much protien and carbs I eat. I am so far doing good on that. Yet, it's so hard. I eat 9am (protien shake), 11am, 1pm , 3 pm 6pm and 9pm. All small meals. I have Twins that just turned 7. They keepe active.

Wow! How old are your twins? What are their genders? I am glad I have a partner that knows how it is to have twins and now GBS.

      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!
