Is two years your timeline to reach goal? I'm hoping to get into onderland by the end of the year (I'm 320 now).

I hope not!! I'm 5'2" @ 300lbs. I'm guestimating, if surgery goes as planned on May 25th, I anticipate a loss of at least 50lbs by birthday (Sep 11).

I am sick.of this weight!!

I suppose 5 lbs a week through the end of the year for me is a stretch goal, but I hope to be 210 by my birthday on December 19th. I'm tall at 5'9".

Good for you!

I've considered surgery on and off for years, and I think I resisted in the past because I wasn't ready for the lifetime changes. My journey here was rather quick. My grandma passed away this summer and she struggled with her weight all her life. She actually reached goal right before she died of a stroke. Recently, my grandpa had a dream where she told him to give me the money for surgery, and he extended the generous offer. I feel like my weight loss will be in honor of her memory.

      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!
