I Want To See Before & After Pics! (Cont'd)



Recommended Posts

Please enjoy these pictures. I hope they will lift your spirits! And there is more than appearance in these victories. My hubby's back and knee pain is reduced greatly. My acid reflux is almost gone. Hubby and I lived through this and regret nothing. It's worth living without pastries. It's worth walking past the Baskin Robbins, and it gets easier. It'll be hard, but stick with it. Everything gets better.

I like the way you're standing like a super hero!

Because you ARE!

Thank you for the wonderful compliment. However, I have plenty of loose skin. My arms are quite jiggly, my tummy has a bunch of loose skin. I also have a really droopy thing I sit on. But you know what? I'm going to be sixty one in September and even though I am not really happy about the gravity issues I am extremely happy about my overall health, energy and future health. I am also extremely happy about my ability to care for my wife who is seven years older than me and in extremely poor health. But thank you for the wonderful compliment I appreciate it so much.

I'm five months post op...a little more than halfway to my goal.


I mostly think I just look taller at this point but those close to me are saying the change is "drastic". I don't see it that way yet but I am excited to keep progressing!

      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!
