I have to break-up with my lover!



Recommended Posts

:update:

Well I broke it off with food yesterday at 11:30 am. You'll be happy to know there were no tears shed;:Cry: it was just an "ok see you later" kind of thing. I left the hospital feeling a little overwhelmed as I had never in my life did something so life changing (Well except have a child, and get married.)

This journey is mine alone to take. Sure I have a lot support from friends and family who will assist me, but in the end it will be me making the choices to live better.

The only question I have is why does it feel like you get punched in the stomach everytime you breakup with someone? Let me tell you something when Food and I broke up it was like, "Ouch, you have got to be kidding me!"

Amy - glad everything went ok - ya that punch in the tummy felt like and elephant had kicked me - but the pain doesn't last forever...

Your (our) Lover named food aka devil - is a real jealous lover - be aware that he will come around an still try and tempt you back into your old love affair... Ya gotta keep your guard up 24/7 for the rest of your life... But the healthier you will be so happy without him hanging all over your body.^_^

Great post Cookie, You put the words so elegantly. I'm sure we ALL relate. I had a problem leaving my "cola's", but juice, crystal light and the cheap drink Water makes me feel so much better, especially my skin, etc. Kudo's to you. I'd still like to have food as a friend, but never again as my lover. LOL

      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!
