I am Vicky and have been overweight forever it seems. I remember my aunt saying she would buy me clothes if I lost weight when I was in grade school. I did lose weight once when I was 20 ish and was in college and changed my patterns and got down to 145. I gained weight again and especially after having my daughter at 24 and my highest weight was 278. I am a Mom of a single daughter and one of 5 siblings and have a very close family, especially with my sisters one of which has had wls 3 months before mine. I have gone from 224 on DOS to 168 and am working slowly towards 150 and hopefully 135 eventually. I am enjoying my new active lifestyle including running and hiking and am enjoying being "normal" size immensely

So I have a question.... Is this a Christmas challenge or a New Years challenge? When does it officially end?

Hi Livvsmum...You are certainly welcome to make this a Christmas Challenge and end it then, but we have it set up as a New Years Challenge. As for me, both of those last two check-ins are important (Christmas Day and New Years Day) markers in my life and I will be watching them both closely. It just seemed that with only 7 days separating the two holidays, we should include New Years Day in this one. I also like the idea of finishing this challenge in the first day of the NEW YEAR.

Happy Holidays!

      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.

      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.
