I am about 11 months out. Had surgery June 5, 2012. I started at 256 and I weigh 140 today. My RA meds have been cut way down and I love fitting into a size 2. This soccer season i played 5 nights a week on 6 teams. i am planning on trying out for the police academy next month. Still working on gaining muscle at this point, but a broken ankle is making that hard.

The hardest thing to me is staying on track with Protein, and Vitamins. It seems when I get kicked off track it can be so hard to pull myself up and get back on the right path. Breaking my ankle through me off of my routine and therefore I have been slacking off.

Hey tammy... missed this post the first time around. Good to see you... you look awesome. I had surgery 15 months ago and am down 186 lbs. I am fluxuating between 156 and 154... but mostly stay at 154. My date of surgery weight was 340. I am seeing that alot of the ones that were on the boards way back when stop in every now and then.... I think we get so busy with our new active lifestyles that we rarely have time to stop in. I think this is a great support group and I really like helping others. So hopefully more of us oldies will start chiming in when the newbies have questions. We are all success stories... share share share!!!!

Congrats!! That is awesome. My surgery was April 1, I'm down 70 pounds but feel a little stuck right now. I guess it will start again when my body says so. Seeing how well people are doing further out is very inspiring to me! Way to go!!! Take care!!

      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!
