Hello everyone it's been awhile... I had my cousin wedding this past weekend and of course I wanted to show myself off to my family that doesn't see me everyday... I weighed myself before I went I'm down to 189lbs Holla... I'm so thrilled and stoked with my progress... So I've lost a total since october 2012 pre op of 86lbs and total lost weigh since surgery 6/24/13 of 69 lbs ?de2c... I ate the seafood they had there but I forgot to not drink half hour after and I had to run to the bathroom and throw up but I only threw up the liquid so that's good ... And still having alittle trouble going number 2 it's like I'm constipated really badly and then I have to take a laxative to softin it n force it out ... But over all everything's good I'm still trying to get all my Protein in with just food lots if seafoods and chili.. And the occasional wawa protein smoothies before work... But I got a lot of compliments from my relatives that just boosted my self esteem... And my boyfriend (oh wow let's just say he loved me before the surgery but now after showing me so much more attention... I'm not complaining haha Hoping now for that ring in the near future lol)

My jewelry that didn't fit before now fits and my rings I have to get ring guards for it's just been amazing... How every inch everywhere is losing weight!!!

Congratulations! on the positive attitude and weight loss. you look great! i know you must be in the Philadelphia area or mid-atlantic ....you actually know what a WaWa is :-)

Have a great day.

I'm excited for my Doctors appointment tomorrow 3 months post op. Down 87 lbs since my first appointment with the doc. Down 70 since surgery.

Knock on wood I've been blessed. I haven't had any dumping syndrome and not tossing my Cookies. But, I haven't had any breads, rice, pastas. I'm feeling good.

I fell like all i do us eat and drink and drink and eat but I'm not ever hiring my goal of 850 cal/day. I'm getting all my Protein and then some but just can't seem to eat enough.

Any one else having this problem?

Here is a weird thing i noticed this week. you Ladies out there may not be able to identify with this, but here we go anyway :-)

in the past 30 years i have shaved my face every third day and never had any problems. i chalked it up to my irish heritage and fair skin etc.

i was apparently wrong! the hair must have not been long enough to get through all of the fat layers...lol. i now have to shave every day and decided to grow a full beard ( trimmed neatly) for the winter.

im kinda of psyched about this shaving thing...just sayin

Have a great day.

      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!
