Thanks everyone,

*Not much stretch marks

*A table spoon of Peanut Butter, you can eat it right from the spoon or add it to the Protein Shake.< /p>

*My oldest son helped me out with exercise at the gym and running up and down the football field 5 days a week. Was in pain, but all worth it.

*I refused to be Fat when I turned 40 years old. At my party I was 40 & Fabulous! Lol

*I'm a mother of 5 kids, I was determined to be health so I can be around to be there for them.

I did 32oz. of Protein Shakes twice a day. Drinking slowly throughout the day. It's a lot to drink at first also drink Water after drinking the shake. I still eat Peanut Butter every morning for added Protein. Trust me PROTEIN is very IMPORTANT when loosing weight fast. It turns the fat into muscle. Good luck to everyone that's in the process and PLEASE do your research on the doctor that your thinking about doing your surgery.

      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!
