Time Flies



Recommended Posts

October 15th will be one year since my surgery. Starting at around 300 pounds then I have lost over 100lbs weighing in currently t 186. This has been the best decision of my life and have zero regrets. Being in maintenance, this is a bit challenging finding the right amount of calories, Protein and carbs to keep my weight within a safe range. I have dropped down to 181 recently but I am comfortable at 186. Here is a video I put together outlining my journey. Once a month I took a headshot of myself in the same place and created this video showing my transformation. For those just starting on this journey, stick to the plan even through stalls and over time you will see and feel the results.

Did you ever have days when things didn't go as planned? I'm 7 months and I'm doing really well it's just sometimes it's such a struggle to make the right choices.

      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!
