Happy Six Month Sleeviversary!!



Recommended Posts

Happy six months everyone! I posted this in another category...but way more fitting here.........First month was getting used to everything...mainly eating. Months 2-5 were scattered! Eating this! Trying that! No, that didn't work! Oh, that works! Body seemed like it was resisting change....weight loss was slow. Summertime was here and schedule was not consistent! Finally! The last three weeks I have developed a great schedule that works for me and am down 10 more lbs! Total weight lost since initial consult is 61 lbs. Am now jogging 4 miles a day 3x's a week. Plus 2 days endurance exercising. I found foods that are perfect for me....Life is good! No...it is GREAT!! 46 more to get to goal.

You are doing great!!! Happy six month to you too!

It's funny, I really haven't experimented too much yet. Just a couple things.. but for the most part everything has remained the same for the last 3-4 months for me! Lol! I did try fresh bread for the first time a few days ago.. it's heavy and uncomfortable. Blah...

Wine tastes good, but man, it hits HARD! Stumbling after 1 glass!

I think we've come close to the end of "the easy part". I suspect it's all uphill from here on out!

bread is not my friend either. Feels like a brick. cheese is in my past life as well as I get really nauseous when I eat even just a tiny bit! Strange how things I didn't like before, i now love and things I loved, eh can do without them. Other than that, I'm thinking it is getting easier for me. I know my boundaries and know what I have to do to keep losing and feeling good. Just had my six month checkup and labs are perfect. All in the zone and focusing here!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
