Thanks for that brave before picture. That kind of looks like the skin I know is going to have to go on me. I'm trying to psyc myself up to do what you are doing. I salute your courage. I wish you a speedy recovery.

Thank you so much. I appreciate it. Just mentally prepare yourself, then physically prepare. I researched the hell out of the process. Plus my doc snapchats a lot of his procedures if his patients give permission. Which I did. My friends and family were so uncertain and afraid for me. In order to be successful I also need my loved ones support. They were able to watch my procedure and see what I went through. My friend that came with me, got to watch while she waited to be let in to see me in recovery. The support I have received blows my mind everyday. And I have never once regretted my decision to commit to this surgical process.

Good luck to you and all that read this. Hugs and much love!!!

My next item is a brachioplasty. I want that badly. But first I need to recover from my breast augmentation and extended Tummy Tuck.< /div>
My next procedure will be a belt lipectomy and then eventually my legs! My arms and breasts were what bothered me the most, so that was what I wanted done first! Thanks for the pictures!

      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!
