It's crazy when someone you used to date has problems with you losing weight because they're worried about you finding someone better... I'm sure I'm not the only one going through this

It's more common than you think. It is also why my non-surgery wife has lost weight right beside me the whole time. Although she was not anywhere near as big as I was, we get to share our victory together and there are no weird feelings that come along with having only one person in the relationship go through a dramatic change.

My husband is doing the same thing as Guru in training's wife. He's starting to walk a lot more now. It is awesome to have the extra support.

Any was there is a reason she's your ex, her not appreciating the weight loss just gives you another reason.

Yeah I didn't tell her until a month before because we're not together and I'm a Navy vet so she's so worried about how I looked 10 years ago just very annoying

I haven't gotten my sleeve yet (5/31) and my fiancé asks me if I'm still going to love him when I lose weight. To me, it's crazy, but I can understand the insecurity because it's something you hear about. What they don't understand is that majority of people who lose dramatic weight quickly still see themselves as heavy and that's not something that (sometimes) ever goes away.

But yeah, you're not the only one going through that haha.

      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!
