My advice is to practice now. Really. I've had countless times where I've ate too fast and ended up eating too much and having everything come right back up. It's not pretty. Lol. But after awhile, you do get into a routine. You can do it! [emoji4]



Thank you!

I understand! Just had my physical, lost 10 lbs so far on my own. Now I have to make more appointments, get time off of work, write in my good journal, make sure I plan out my meals....trust me it works, but it's exhausting. I think after I'm approved and the appointments slow down, I'll be ok. I haven't much time to myself lately and I'm just tired. I'm not regretkng anything, Its like having a second job!

I'm 13 months post op and I've lost over 200 pounds. But I remember like it was yesterday waiting to get approved. It took me over a year to finally get a date for surgery. I wish you all the best! And if you have any questions, I'm here! [emoji4]







Oooh i love this! Im a bag of nerves. Still in the process of getting approved.. and its all i can think abt.

Constipation sucks, I used to be regular multiple times a day. This is my only complain.

So far my only complaint is that I waited to long to start this process. Back in June I was thinking about how I wanted to do WLS and told some people who talked me out of it. So. MUCH. REGRET. It's okay, I'm sticking to it this time around.

      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!
