So looks like so far I will be the first for the month...scary! Guess I will need to post every day after surgery to let you know what each day brings! lol. Are you all as scared as I am? One minute I am excited about it and find myself dreaming of the new me - the next my stomach turns and I am asking myself what the heck am I doing!

What part of AK are in in kitten? Went on cruise last year to Alaska - scenery was mind blowing. Disappointed because I didnt see any whales though!

I'm in anchorage, the biggest city. Don't feel so bad, I've lived here for the majority of my life and never seen a whale. Lots of moose, foxs, rabbits, and bears but never whales. I probably don't make it to the Water enough tho.

I'm not so much scared as I am in disbelief. It's something I've thought about for so long that it doesn't seem true. I find that during the day I'm excited but at night I start to get nervous. This website has helped tremendously tho.

My surgery is on August 1 !! This is finally happening! I started this journey in March and I started my 2 week liquid diet today . I've finished my food funerals so I started it a day early.

I am 55 years old and weighed 262.6 this morning. My hubby helped me take my measurements so I can keep track of my progress . I found out today that I do not like Premier Protein shakes although I did finish the one I opened. I do like Muscle Milk!

Congratulations and best wishes to all of you and I look forward to sharing this experience with you!!

      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!
