Be able to have the strength in my legs to snap shut the leg thingy on my recliner. I no longer struggle to get out of my recliner but I just don't have the strength to shut it. What are some of your unusual goals/victories?

I'd like to learn how to rollerblade. I'd like to fly without a seatbelt extender. I want to go to Cedar point and fit on all the rides. I want to race a go-cart.

I agree with you and really don't like ones that are screwed to the floor. Yikes!

I want my thighs to not touch

I want a pair of boots to go over my calves without having to buy wide calves that are too big in the ankle.

I want to wear sleeveless shirts without feeling sick by my flabby arms

I want to sit on antique furniture without the panic of its going to crush

I want to wear a 1950s style dress (polka dots)

I want to wear a single digit size one time in my adult life.

I want to weigh what an average women weighs (not the average man)

I want to be able to quit fretting about weight limits on everything. Kind of tired of going to people's houses and doing the discreet furniture wiggle to see if there's a chance I'm going to get dumped on my behind!

I want to be able to see my passing reflection and not cringe. I want to be able to go into any store to shop for clothes, not over-priced, plus sized stores. I want to feel comfortable in my own skin...12/29, my life will change forever!

      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!
