New motivation



Recommended Posts

I'm so sorry to keep talking about my personal life

But my latest divorce drama has given me a new motivation to work even harder to loose more weight. I want to bump into him months from now and for him to see me looking all sexy and skinny....and maybe on the arm of a good looking guy, while he is still all alone.

Is that petty?

it is whatever it is.

but, I do not let my ex husband have that sort of influence on my behavior.

That used to be called a "revenge diet." Now it's "revenge health."

No it's not petty....it's just how you are feeling at this moment. You might change your mind in a few months...hopefully - in the future- you just won't even care what he thinks!

Definitely normal. :) I was seperated from my ex husband and going thru the divorce when I started my journey. At the time he had left me for a skinny blonde. That was close to 2 years ago. I decided to get healthy for me and my son. He and his new blonde were verbally abusive, called me fat and ugly even in front of my son. I used it as motivation and grew stronger from it.

I lost 80lbs pre op. And am down over 150lbs at this point. I'm happier, healthier and now skinnier than him and his blonde who seem miserable. :)

Needless to say they keep their mouths shut now. Karma.

Not the reason behind my journey. I did this for me. But yea, it's a bonus and it feels great!

Youve got this.

      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!
