So one of the neighbors several houses away walked up behind me in the driveway as I was talking to my husband. When I turned around he gasped and said I thought Tim had got divorced because I kept seeing this skinny' date=' young chick down here. Didn't realize the hot chick was you. Made me laugh--my husband said no I've had her for 35 years and the hot chick is all mine![/quote']l

I was going thru old stuff at my mom's looking for a coat to wear this winter since everything I have is too big. I found my American Eagle peacoat from high school. Had a patch in the pocket from an ice hockey tournament in 2002 in the pocket, so I guess that's the last place I wore it.

Not only did it fit, it even buttoned!

I was looking in the closet in the basement and found my step-daughters fitted leather coat her mom bought her 8 years ago. I remember she hated it, never wore it, and when we moved she had it in the goodwill pile. Well, so glad I kept it because now this size 10, really sharp leather jacket fits me!!!!! I'm not even going to tell her. I'm just going to wear it an see if she notices lol!

This weekend was my daughters 5th birthday party. Many extended family and friends were there that haven't seen me since surgery on July 1st. All day people kept commenting how great I looked. It was amazing. I've lost 86 pounds so far. Then today I saw my father in law who has been out of the country for 6 months and he didn't recognize me from behind! I swear this has been the greatest weekend ever :)

Last Sunday I did not sit on the coach and veg while watching football. My daughter and I went out and played. Then the whole family went shopping at an outdoor outlet mall. I dont shop because shopping is evil and it seperates me from my money however I was able to walk around and enjoy the time with the family.

      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.

        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!
