Windows and mirrors



Recommended Posts

That moment when you catch your reflection in a window or mirror and notice "holy crap I am shrinking". It happened to me a few times in the last week. Love it!

Nope.

I see 'em and think....."Still look like Sasquatch". :P

I'll come, though. All in due time.

I went through a period where I literally didn't recognize my reflection when I would catch it out of the corner of my eye.

I actually scared myself a few times, seeing my reflection and thinking "who the fuck is sneaking up on me?" Before I realized it was me. Lol

I was surprised to see my shadow. Just makes you laugh at the changes rapid weight loss can bring into your life.

That's one of the great joys at being witness to our own transformation.

Congratulations. :)

I can't even count how many times I caught sight of myself in a store window or mirror and thought to myself -- "Hey! That chick is wearing MY outfit. I wish I was her size.", only to realize I **WAS** that chick.

      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!
