I rocked a size medium BeBe's summer dress yesterday. I haven't been in a medium since Jr High and I've NEVER in my life been able to fit in ANYTHING from BeBe's.

Let's see...

I found out that I have a neck and hip bones, who knew...

The airplane ride last week was great. I was not sick before hand worrying if I would fit

I still can't grasp I can wear a large.

I have 10 bags of clothes for charity!!!

I think I can wear sleeveless :huh:

I am an extremely happily married women ....but sex got better!!!

I look people in the eye at restaurants now instead of feeling guilty for eating like a heffer

I catch men checking me out (not that I care but hey....it's flattering)

I can wear clothes at the store...like normal ones. Affordable ones. No more lb

I have more energy and appreciate my curves

I can feel my bones again (been buried for 5 yrs)

I. Am. Happy.

Best decision I've made hands down (besides marrying my hot hubby)

I went shopping with my girls and went into one of those teeny bopper stores (OMG that makes me sound so old), but you know the type of store I'm talking about. I tried on a pair of jeans there size 15/16 and THEY FIT!! I didn't like them at all and didn't buy them but I was so excited that they fit. I also stood in front the mirror at the gym the other day and I didn't want to gag!! HA HA, yeah I know that's cruel but I felt closer to average and didn't feel like the one fat girl at the gym. It was amazing!

I have lost 30 pounds since the surgery, and 50 overall (50 to go). Here are my favorite non-scale victories:

Being able to cross my legs!

Being able to sleep on my stomach again!

Being able to run without pain in my hips, knees, and feet!

Being able to shop in the Misses section of the store!!!!!!!

Being able to do a sit-up, or paint my toe-nails, or tie my shoes without my belly causing all the air to whoosh out of my lungs!

So pleased to be able to share with all of you!

      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!
