Being out of plus size is a big one for me. I am very close now and I can't wait to be able to shop for pants in any department in any store!

3) having a normal size bath towel wrap all the way around me

Even though the normal sized bath towel wraps around me, I still like using my beach towels from my heavier days because now they REALLY wrap around me!

yes, yes, and YES!!!! every single one of these!!!! not to mention

(4) no more raw thighs that rub together when wearing dresses/skirts in the heat that Texas enjoys for 10months out of the year.

(5) not wondering how WIDE my butt looks when I'm doing squats or incline leg curls.

(6) knowing I will be able to keep up with my (future) kiddos. heck, knowing I'll be more fertile to HAVE those future babies :)

Being able to wear tall boots, because my calves aren't too big.

Thanks for posting this! I have been thinking about the future NSVs I am looking forward to as well! (I am also pretty excited to be getting closer to them!)

I also can't wait to be able to wear clothes that are not plus size! I also look forward to:

-buying tall boots in a style that isn't determined by the ones that fit over my calves

-sitting at at attached chair/desk comfortably (and not freaking out when I go to a workshop that has them about whether I am going to fit)

-sitting in a seat at the movies/in an auditorium without "spillover" into the seat next to me

-sitting comfortably in a restaurant booth, even when the table is bolted down

I am already seeing some of these, and I'm sure that there will be more that I haven't even considered a possibility as I get closer to goal!

      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!
