I am two weeks post-op today addition to be honest i find looking too far forward scary. I am excited and nervous, excited at the possibilities and nervous as to the unknown.

Your photos are an inspiration. You look great.

Great job . I am 14 months out and I have dropped a lot of weight but I have been at a stall for the last 3 months . Gain 2 lbs lose 3 then gain 2 ? Did you run into that?

Absolutely. It is very common especially after the first year. The weight falls off without any problem and then you hit the stair steps where you fluctuate. My Dr. always says it's ok as long as you don't see the scale go up and up and up lol. But usually reevaluating what I am doing helps. I will bust out the food journal and whatnot.

I have never posted pictures on here because I never wanted to put out what I used to look like as I am no longer that person. I am a new person but have come to terms that I wouldn't be who I am today if I hadn't lived life as a larger person. I also know that when I started out looking at other people's pictures were such at motivation for me so I am hoping these will help someone in return. The picture of me at my largest was after I had my son. I had lost a significant amount of weight before my day of surgery which is the pic of me looking grumpy and in pain.attachicon.gifIMG_20140614_214738.jpgattachicon.gifIMG_20140828_070608.jpgattachicon.gifIMG_20150105_192223.jpgattachicon.gif20150517_105259.jpgattachicon.gif20150701_192817.jpgattachicon.gif20151004_094124.jpgattachicon.gif20160731_151351.jpg

Even though you were big back then, just looking at you, I could already tell you were a beautiful lady. :)

I agree with the others that you look wonderful...but do you mind me saying I think you were beautiful before you lost the weight. What a great smile! I am proud of you because we all know that losing the weight isn't just for beauty but for health. Congrats again!

      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!
