Bump In The Road...



Recommended Posts

I've been second guessing myself lately and getting scared cause it will be a life changer and I can't see myself thin and it's taking a toll on me mentally. I've gotten all my doctor appointments out of the way and have just been waiting for break in between semesters at school.

But now, last month I had to have a surgery because I kept having pain in my lower abdomen and my doctor says I have atypical endometriosis and it couldn't be taken out because it was on a blood vessel and have to have 6 month treatment of Lupron to put me through menopause (I'm only 22!!) and I'm not sure how this will effect my surgery :/ I just want this to happen already!!!!!!! Any one else have this or know anything on the topic and how it will effect my surgery or having future children??

Sorry to hear, but did u ask ur doc how this will all affect u. He/she is the best person to ask. If they give u a go go thru with it. Ur mind is ur worst enemy. Just because u get the surgery doesn't mean u have to be thin. Currently I'm a 24 and I just wanna get back to a 12 lowest 10..... so I'm gonna still have some meat and my curves....

Yeah I don't think I'll ever be like a 2 or anything I'm going for a 12 as well. I'm at a 28 right now, and I need to contact my dr for surgery again and make an appt or something to ask about the endo and such. I'm in the middle of insurance changing (dropping state aid just gonna have united health care but that's better anyways lol) I guess I'm just procrastinating but I want the change to happen but I'm scared things will change too much I guess or my bf will leave or something idk

      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.

      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!
