Thanks!! I had surgery december 3rd 2012. I work out 5days a week. I have an issue with eating actually. I was diagnosed anorexic about 5months ago but its getting better slowly. Wish you all the best on yalls journey <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Wow I didn't know about the anorexia. I struggled with that when I first got out of high school. It seemed so weird that everyone told me I looked great even though I was so sick...I wish you all the best too! :)

I feel the same way but people that know me well see how sick I am when im so lethargic some days. I went to my surgeons today for a weigh in since I havnt gone in for awhile and they were like tonya this is going to kill you if you keep it up. That was hard to hear!

When I was at the height of my bulimia, I weighed 127 lbs...I'm almost 5'11"! People were constantly telling me I looked great, etc. it really was harmful. I had to learn about proper body image. Screwy body image is all over this society.

      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!
