I've been using the jars, I started it from the beginning. I took my highest weight and subtracted it from my current. I counted out that many stones and placed them in the pounds loss jar. Because those pounds count as well. It's nice to see and appreciate what I've already accomplish before surgery. Under this jar I placed a sticky note with the number of stones in it. Then to up date the jar I take my starting weight from my current weight.

Example:

Start weight: 297

Current: 239

Stones: 58

Leave sticky note under jar 58.

I'm on my pre op Protein liquid diet; surgery on Monday ????

I also use the jar, (my starting weight was 254 I am now 232) but I always forget how many rocks (lbs) ive already put in I'll take any tips on that!

And the canvas I love that idea thank you for sharing I'm sooo going to ale one for me!!!'

And yes you are super adorable, you are def my inspiration, when I saw your photo it reminds me of my body type; the thought of being in wonderland and having the body like yours excited and encourages me, all in just what 6 wks since surgery?

Can I ask what workout program you do? Thank you

I do a mix of things. I've worked with a friend who is working on becoming a personal trainer in the past. She taught me how to lift weights. So I lift, run on the treadmill, do the stair climber, I swim laps, and I recently started adding in yoga and Pilates classes. I mix it up. I think doing different things on a regular basis really helped me. I haven't really stalled and I'm 7 weeks out. The longest I've gone is about 4 days without a loss. I usually lose half a pound or more a day. But everyone is different and losses at their own pace when their body is ready. I'm sure my time with stalls is coming soon. But I'm going to embrace it. Best of luck to you. And thank you all for the support <3

Thank you for sharing your exercise regime with me!!! I'm so excited tomorrow is my big day!!

      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!
