....................................................................

This month with my sleeve has been really cool. I've definitely had my moments of what the hell have I done but I'm very excited for the future. I'm very proud of myself thus far. No cheating , no slip ups. One thing I wish I would have done before surgery is practice chewing everything down to mush because I swear now sometimes my bite size is too big and then im rolling around on the floor chest hurting so bad. But other wise I'm good.

So my next goal is to be 200 pounds by April , hope these next 34 pounds come off as easy. Definitely have to pick up on my exercising so it can come off faster.

Any work out tips?

You sound so pumped up..that is great. Congrats on your weight loss thus far. Yes u have good reason to be proud of yourself.

I too forget to chew my food to almost nothing. I still eat too fast. Well, I may have slowed down a little, but not enough. It is hard to break old habits. One thing that works for me when I am eating meats is to cut the food into small pieces before I start to eat. That helps with not taking too big of a bite.

      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.

      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!
