Finally, a date...and I don't mean with George Clooney.



Recommended Posts

Just got off the phone with my surgeon's office and I have a date! November 20th! Yeah! I am very happy about it, but George Clooney would be nice as well. ;) At least one of those things will be a reality. :D

Thanks all for the support! To tell the truth, I am torn between George Clooney and Hugh Jackman, but since Clooney is from my area, he is the more likely candidate. :D (By the way, if you had told me at 16 I would think a guy named Hugh or George would be a heartthrob, I would have thought you were nuts.)

And proudgrammy, you are a tease! But I will have my own version of George there. At least my husband looks like George Clooney...in the dark. But my husband is much sweeter and just as handsome to me. :) I have lost 45 lbs since February, and 36 since June, when I went in for my initial consultation. That is due to MFP and the gym.

I have to say I had a slide back moment last night when I said my final goodbyes and broke up with chocolate stuffed Oreos. But I was still under calorie for the day. And it made me realize how much I need this surgery to help with staying on track. Ironically, I lost another pound this morning when I woke up. :blink:

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
