Ummm tips please! You look bomb.com hunty! How tall are you if you don't mind me asking? I'm 5'2 and 150lbs currently and you look how i wish i looked lol. Been trying to hit the gym but it makes my fibro flare up so I'm probably going to work into yoga and just keep walking about an hour a day. You've REALLY motivated me to get these last 30lbs off. I had surgery 2 months before you, so i feel like a surgery sister lol. You're amazing. Im such a slacker compared to most of you guys. Keep up the good work girl!

Omg thank you I’m sure you look gorg!!

Okay I’m 5’7 measurements are 32-25-38. Yes I have about 20 more pounds I need to lose but it’s hard cause I snack on and off! Yes at the gym I just do treadmill and elliptical, I did yoga for months, I did Zumba a few times but I’m done with that I still be out of breath fast way too fast to deal with Zumba. I honestly just google different ways to exercise and at home exercises also. But again I realized I can go hard in the gym and do other things but I won’t lose my last pounds if I keep snacking so also look at other things that could be slowing down your last goal!!

I’m still miss Protein to the T.
I make sure to have eggs, yogurt or salmon atleast 2 of the 3 a day. I’m always at restaurants because I don’t know how to cook so I always get salmon or grilled chicken. Now I can eat salad so lately I get grilled salmon or chicken Cesar salads. I watch little things like dressings, Condiments on sandwiches, butter whenever I try to make eggs etc.

Also drinks are a big deal. I started drinking alcohol again for the first time in over 15 months... gained 3 pounds after I went out twice and had brunch. I know it’s from those drinks (still till this day I can barely finish half of a reg plate of food). So I stopped that also. I only drink Water, maybe I’ll have some iced tea in the week but water is literally the key. Like when I’m properly hydrated I don’t feel hungry or wanna grab some Doritos.

So yes it’s Little things that’s truly helped me! Water, STILL & always thinking about protein and watching my snack intake. Everybody is different but I hope these tips helped !!

Thank you so much for that. You seem pretty normal in the way you approach things. It seems pretty natural. It's pretty much what i try to stick to. Snacking IS a problem. Especially around that time of the month. But im getting my groove back. Making more of an effort to prioritize my water and protein and trying to get in more activity.

I had gone to the gym a few times with my sister but i did a lot of weights and got really sore. Maybe ill just keep it simple and stick to cardio and yoga. Thanks for the help. Keep up the great work![emoji3]

      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.

        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!
