Oh and while in WA state, visit the San Juan islands! Bellingham, Anacortes etc....beautiful scenery, some great little places to stop along the way, wineries etc.....you need to do a travel blog!

If you have a little time, I can second the suggestion to take the ferry to the San Juan islands.

In the city, the Pike Place Market down by the waterfront is a great place to visit, and they have myriad food choices, including tons of fresh and healthy seafood.

I am sure I have seen on reality tv a restaurant where you have to eat your weight in something or other. If such a place existed I would imagine you could find someplace like that in Nevada.

Just the thought of that turns my stomach, eek.

I finally found public scales!!!! Okay, got a little excited there.

My friend recommended using the blood pressure machine at the pharmacy in Walmart, and as I was trying to kill time before the drive to Vegas this afternoon I was doing every test they had and I realised you could do weight and BMI! You just sit on the seat and put your feet up on the bar and it does what the stand up scales at home do! And it's free!

I asked the lady behind the pharmacy desk and she said every Walmart should have one - so now I just need to find Walmart on my travels. Which isn't exactly hard - hooray!

This is great to know.

And, yes, unfortunately, you can find Walmart just about everywhere.

      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!
