Quick comment here… you're never too large for yoga. I used to teach modified hatha years ago. I even toyed around with opening up my own studio called "Living Large Yoga" for people who felt they were too big. A decent yoga instructor will know modifications to any pose. I say go for it! Be well…

I agree in theory. But I did it when I was quite a bit smaller and it just disgusts and depresses me now. And I really don't need to have a teacher showing me how to do poses to get around my fatness. Ack.

Sunwarrior plant based Protein

Warrior food plant base Protein

Tera's whey Protein powder

I have tried the top two and am pleased. They do require some mixing....I gag pretty easily so I can't just mix them with Water.

I haven't tried Tera's Whey yet but will be ordering some samples this month.

These are processed without heavy metals, pesticides, are non-gmo, and processed to retain as much nutrient value as possible. The Warrior food comes in glass jars so no chance of toxins leaching from plastics. I am still experimenting with them and am always on the lookout for natural, organic protein powders/shakes. Still looking for pre-made shakes.

You just described the life that I've planned for. I already got my reiki master and want to start healing people after I have recovered from the surgery . I want a peaceful life.

Thanks for starting this group!

      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!
