I know, it's amazing that you lose weight everywhere but the cock, which gains size.

Never knew mine was so big.

I just had my surgery two weeks ago today, so I have a lot of work still ahead of me to get to my goal. But I am looking forward to many different activities: hiking in the hills, riding a bike, and taking long walks with my wife are just a few.

First and foremost I look forward to climbing a flight of stairs and not spending the next five minutes trying to catch my breath. I would also love to ride a bike again. And learn to swim. I haven't been in a pool in many years because I was too ashamed to be seen in a bathing suit.

So I just realized I posted in the guys group- I'm sorry! It came up as a recent topic the other day and I didn't see this was for the men only. Apologies dudes!

I hated being called "big guy" too, but now I'm called Slim by some of the same people, not sure how I feel about that, either. Why can't I just be called "Dave"?

Some of the things have already happened, like being able to fit in regular clothes instead of plus size, cross my legs, not worrying about over eating etc.

Being satisfied with rate I am losing weight, I am currently looking forward to being able to drink liberally and not have to sip sip sip. I have started real cardio still for fear of getting dehydrated. I am peeing less than I use to before surgery.

I am looking forward to learning how to Scuba dive and to learning how to fly. Not only do I want to fit in the seat, but I want to fit into the cockpit. Most important though is to be able to do any activity with my 2 year old daughter that she wants to do.

      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!
