So I had to restart my program with my weight loss center. I'm very upset about it but I might have to wait a year to have the surgery. I didn't pass my psychological. But I've got more fight in me than I've ever had in my life. I'm going to do this. I'm going to do it for everyone I love. But most of all I'm going to do it for myself because I don't want to die at a young age. I don't want to leave my husband all alone depressed because I died. I love my family and they're supporting me. I'm going to do this I'm a fighter and a survivor and a Victor I conquered my fears and I conquered my past I can do this thank you

Take it one day at a time.

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. Don't look too far down the road. Just stay in the moment, and take the next best bite. Make the next best decision be one for your future, even when it goes against short term reward, or may include pain and deprivation.

You CAN do this hon!!! Post here a lot and do your research. Look at before/afters! Be inspired. You CAN do this!

      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.

        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.

      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!
