WOOT WOOT!!!!

I haven't been on the boards for a while and when I get on I see THIS GREAT NEWS???? Way to go! I'm so happy for you.

@esskay77 -- work the plan. Eat your Protein first. Avoid carbs except fruits/veggies. Exercise consistently (weight bearing and cardio). If you're off track, talk to your doctor and nutritionist. I hit my goal at 5-1/2 months following the plan exactly. I'm feeling fantastic, loving the new level of energy and I've gotten to where the eating plan is my normal routine. You can do it, too!

I don't have a standing photo since I reach goal but here I was holding my granddaughter. You can tell by my face and skinny legs...I will get a better one soon...(over 80 inches gone)

Rocking those boots! Funny -- I lost inches everywhere but I still have big calves and have trouble finding big-calf boots. Even the extended calf ones are usually too tight to zip! :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
