Doing good! Learning how to navigate life with my new stomach and new size. I am stuck at 185 for a few months now. I decided not to stress about it. I would like to lose at least another 15 lbs but I also know what it is going to take. I know why I am stalled. I have let some bad foods back in my diet. Exercise is a huge part of my life now and I have been telling myself it is ok to splurge even though I know it is not. All in all I am very happy with this decision. I wish I had a little more restriction and I wish that my sweet tooth went away! I lost 85 lbs in total and I feel so much better. I think maybe we are all at the point where we need a restart on our diets and to get back on track?!??

I have been doing well. I ended up losing 100 lbs total with 20 more to go but frankly I am happy with the 100 lbs loss and if that's what it stays at then so be it.

I found out a few weeks ago I am pregnant so that was a surprise to both me and my husband. We weren't going to start trying until October.

Now I am gaining a little weight but it comes with the territory. I am just hoping that after the baby comes that I can lose everything I gain during the pregnancy.

      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.

      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!
