Who'd thunk it? A negative NSV!

I was shopping for a new shirt and found a purple one I wanted bad!

It was the only purple shirt they had.

AND I WAS TOO THIN TO WEAR IT!!!!!! (Happy Dance.....kinda)

It happens to me constantly. Most of the time, when I select something to try on, it's too big. Even underwear is too big, lol. I am always searching for a smaller size.

I am still a ways off until I get to where you guys are at but there is one thing that has started to affect me in a negative way already.

For whatever reason, my feet have super deflated. I am guessing it is a combination of weight loss but mainly the fact that I no longer hork tons of salty foods which means there is no excessive bloating. Also the weight loss has given my knees, legs and feet some great relief which also means that they also don't bloat as before.

As a result, all my shoes are starting to feel loose and wide. I am obsessed with shoes and have put in A LOT of money into buying really nice shoes from all over the country and all over the world. Unfortunately, I have a feeling that I will not be able to wear my shoes after a few months because they are really starting to loosen up. I also think that maybe I always used to buy shoes that were a size or two bigger than my foot length because my feet are wide due to the weight.

It happens to us ladies plenty. There are lots and lots of size 10 and 12's. Even 8's. But smaller than that become difficult. I wear a 6 in jeans and can be as small as a 2 or 4 in some dresses. Very hard to find those sizes.

      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.

        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!
