I'm trying to gather together a group of us to do the weekly challenges on Fit Bit. I have about 8 people with WLS so far but if you have a Fit Bit and are interested in joining please let me know! As always we are doing the Exercise Challenge (this one is until 3/1 then we'll run a new one). Hope to hear from you guys soon! Have an amazing day!!! :)

They have daily challenges to reach your goal number of steps or just be the one with the highest number of steps then there is a weeklong challenge to see who has the most steps then there is a weekend challenge to see who has the most steps over the weekend. Our challenges are comprised of Bariatric friends (people who've had weight loss surgery and most are using the fitbit to reach their goal weight!) :)

I just had surgery so I am not walking very far but it might still be motivating. What do you think? Also does it notify you on the fitbit or through email? Thanks by the way two weeks out so I am up and moving

      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!
