Completed Psych Eval this morning. Didn't feel too great about it. Felt extremely rushed. I will get the results in 2 weeks. I don't like the idea of this being the determination of my entire outcome.

This is the first week I have held myself 100% accountable. After getting the screw off the bottom of the food scale, which is a lifesaver by the way, I measured out all lunch and dinner for the week.

My grocery list has significantly changed. I actually like the wheat English Muffins. I am Pre-Surgery. So, my diet, of course is 1500 calories. I have found a calendar that helps to lay it all out.

I've completed all my visits with health insurance and 2nd req dietician visit will be same day as results in 2 wks. I am still a work in progress. I am proud of how far I've come. sleep study on Monday.

Thank you for the encouragement. It's been a long process. At times, I've questioned if I'm doing the right thing. I've already made most of the requested changes. Now, I just need to lose the required 25 lbs. I know it'll happen now that I have the structured diet.

      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.

      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!
