if they say its the easy way out tell them to jump off the bridge this is anything but easy. I not only have to work as hard as the person doing exercise but im doing it on less fuel. If they say it happens quicker that might be true but i put my body and soul through trauma to better my circumstances if im a "cheater" for that then so be it but i make cheating look good. Hello beautiful people. I refuse to be ashame for doing this i say it proudly cause the results are speaking for themselves

I agree wholeheartedly. There is NOTHING easy about it. And I never got the idea that a surgical solution to a medical problem is the "easy way out". If I had a bad knee, would having surgery on it be taking the "easy way out"? Should I just "power through" the pain? Of course not!

You already made the first steps your time will come but i will say what most people wont enjoy some of those foods while you still can but dont over indulge i miss some of the flavors. But i wouldnt take the surgery back for anything

Once upon a time I was 1 of those people that called it "the easy way" after jumping through all the hoops this past year with all the pre-testing stuff.. Then actually going through the surgery(being opened up because laproscopic didn't work because of mesh) developing an infection 2 weeks out and ending up back in the hospital for 4 more days.. And still have a wound vac on(getting off tomorrow).. I'm 6weeks out.. Hell no this isn't the easy way out! But I'd do it again and I wish I had done it sooner

      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.

        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!
