Hey everybody I haven't been on here on Months and I missed all of you guys! :) okay just a quick recap story about my WLS Journey. Well when I first started my highest weight was 299 when I got my surg it was Aug 15 2012 I waited so long to get my surg it too me 2 yrs to get it when I finally did I rejoyced! I had thee worst problems with insurance and motivation and depression and it was just a mess! Lol eventually it all got straighten out and I finally got the courage to actually go thru with the surg. Okay so I did Everything that my doc wanted me to do! He told me To loose weight in order for him to even touch me BOOM I did it! Now it wasn't a whole lot it was like 5 pounds or so but I still lost something! So I did that they wanted me to start a Vitamin BOOM I did that they wanted me to practice separating eating and drinking BOOM! Well that one took a long while to master but once I had the surg it was hella easy because u literally can't do both! Lol but anyway after my surg I kinda had probs because of the nausea and tolerance to some stuff but in time that settled too..in DEC '12 I think I was around 240 -30 ish ballpark jan it was like 220s and now it's FEB and I'm feeling GREAT and sexy and my scars don't hurt anymore (thank goodness) lol but I've honestly been a lil busy be and Camera Junkie! All I do is take pics now lmao Im so proud of myself for loosing these 80 pounds I'm currently at 215 or 19 one of those because my scale and the hospital scale is kinda different but either way I'm OUT OF THE 220s!!!!!!! Yay me!! I haven been this small since middle school! But the current goal weight is 160 right now hopefully bye summer I will reach it. I'm doin baby steps and making REALISTIC goals for myself and I really think that's key though but I'm not gonna make you read anymore because I'm rambling now lol but here my pics :)

      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!
