Here to brag a bit and update on progress:
Down 50 pounds!
VSG 6/1
Pre-op 286
Current 236
Amazing to see the ongoing transformation!...

May need to reassess my "target" weight. I picked 210 because that would put me below BMI of 30 (arbitrary, I know!) ans because, well, I couldn't imagine weighing that little, let alone even less!

Congrats! Did you lose 50 since the surgery or is some pre surgery loss?

That was my weight at the start of my 2w pre-op diet. I lost 12 during those 2 weeks, and now 38 more in my two months post!

Thanks all! I’m 5’10. Exercise - I’ve not been as consistent as I’d like, but I’m in my gym at least once a week to jog and lift some weights. I walk a lot, though, often 8-10k steps a day even if not hitting the gym!

I think your doing GREAT! and you know 10k steps is almost equivalent to 5 miles. Keep it up since June you go!

      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!
