Sometimes I forget I'm not that big...



Recommended Posts

Losing weight so fast plays some serious mind-games with you...

Last night's one was really shocking (for me) yet funny:

My husband and I were laying in bed (this doesn't get dirty, sorry), and he was running his hand along my side and back. I could feel his hand going over lumps.

So I was like, "your hand's getting caught on my fat rolls."

Him- "um, no honey, those are your ribs.

MY RIBS!!!! LOL

Of course, I surely thought he was wrong and I kept putting my hand in the same spot where my back fat used to hang-- yep, ribs.

Lol, have you noticed how your fingers and hands are also more defined? I spend a few minutes every day day dreaming..... Just staring at them., almost like flexing muscles......lol

Then there's the hip bones.......

I look at my hands and wrists sometimes and think they don't belong to me. Downside - hands are starting to look wrinkly!

Shoes are too big now, plus I don't see that shoulder pad of fat hump thing so much anymore.

      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.

        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!
