  • feeling comfortable naked (in the right situations)

wearing blingy western wear - (why is western wear sized so small?)

not wearing shapewear

shopping in ANY store, NOT the plus-size stores

not being the heaviest person in the family

seeing what I look like at a normal weight

feeling comfortable in a swim suit

doing exercises without my belly being in the way

being complimented on the way I look (rather than 'you have nice eyes')

shocking people or not being recognized

I'm excited to be writing this as I approach my two month anniversary from surgery. I'm doing wonderful! I feel fantastic and have dropped a ton of weight and am starting to see some of my early on goals met.

I couldn't have imagined 2 months ago that I would have met some of these items but I did. Now to make some new items on the list..

      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!
