Thanks Girl

Others are losing more. But as Creek said, how much of that is pre surgery diet or whatever..

Hi, can I just tell you? You're profile picture is gorgeous? That color looks great on you, too..

:)

Thanks so much sweetie! Your kind words made my day :) xx

I feel the same way as you do. My surgery was 12/28. I've lost 19 lbs. since surgery and I've followed all dietary protocol. I do walk around my block each week - some weeks more than others because of fibromyalgia and arthritis pain. I spoke to my doctor about this and she was understanding, encouraged me to rest in the worse days and do more in the better days. She also thought my weight loss was good. I had lost 18 lbs. during the first 4 weeks and lost 1 lb. in the last week. Like you, I have wondered why more hasn't come off because I'm not eating much and I see other people losing more weight. Since my consultation, I've lost 41 pounds. The dietician, therapist, and surgeon are pleased. I'm just hoping things don't keep going this slowly. While I feel this way, all of the posts make perfect sense and are very logical. And, I actually think your weight loss is very good. You're really doing great and need to keep doing what you're doing.

      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!
