Augh... from the past week I am struggling on eating right. I'm going for my 3rd preoperative weigh in in a week. I'm just frustrated. Stress is high right now. I'm trying to meditate. Extra walking. It's prom season for my daughter. She's going through something emotionally this entire school year and won't talk about. My son is graduating high school and he's off kilter. He's autistic so changes are extremely challenging. Work is difficult. My go to support people are very busy at the moment.

I know I have many blessings in my life. I am very lucky to have people around me that are supportive for the most part.

I'm just frustrated and could use a few bits of encouragement and advice. Thank you

I sure do feel for you! my daughter who graduated Monday has Asperger's Syndrome. She is delightful, but getting her to this point was quite a job!

I am a stress cleaner, so my kitchen looks GREAT!.

You have us now to help be a part of your support system. when you get off track, try to get back on as soon as you can and don't beat yourself up over the slips. try to not choose the worst thing when you get knocked off track. I think the meditation and walking are super choices. I spend part of my lunch break at work listening to quiet music with the lights off, 15-20 minutes and it really helps me let go of the morning yuk from work.

      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!
