When it starts to set in that you only have 1 more diet visit, and a class left...

Can you say nervous?!

I'll be a whole new person this time next year!!! And cue the tears in 3... 2... 1...

That is exactly the way to think about it. Where will you be in the next year!

For me although I was nervous the night before, my surgery day was like Christmas morning and I was getting the gift of a lifetime!

Now 2 years later I am at goal maintaining. Had my first plastics almost 3 weeks ago. I wear a size 8 clothes which has never ever happened in my life.

Best of all I have more energy and feel so much younger because of it.

Congratulations you are well on your way and I am sure surgery will be right around the corner for you!

Keep us posted. :)

Your post resonated with me. One year ago tomorrow I embarked on my RNY journey. It will amaze you that the year flies by. The past twelve months were filled with new adventures and experiences. It only gets better!!!

Congrats to you!

I was so relieved after surgery. I thought now I'm going to see my daughter grow up.

I do have some posted on my profile. I will be posting new ones in the next couple of weeks as I just had an arm lift. Monday I get the dressings off and I can hardly wait. I have been itching like a crazy fool for the last 3 weeks.

      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!
