Milestone #1 just passed



Recommended Posts

Hi! So, this happened on the scale today - it still doesn’t feel real that this is happening.

Here are some before, during, and now pics. I look back and the old pics don’t feel like me. But neither do the new ones. It’s going to take a while to get my brain caught up.

The first pic is my highest weight, at 300lbs. The bottom two pics are from this week.

Yay!!! Congrats and welcome to Onederland!!! What a difference a hundred pounds make!!

But I will just tell you--I'm sure your confidence has grown as you've seen and felt success, but I see that same bright, shiny, puckish sense of humor and style/attitude both then and now!

Amazing and inspirational! You are beautiful!

Thank you! TBH - my personality hasn’t changed that much. I was an extrovert at 300 lbs, and still am. I was confident then, and still am. I am so much more comfortable in my skin now, though. All of the outdoor activities I love are easier. And though I was confident in who I was internally then, my self-esteem in regards to my appearance has improved tremendously, and hopefully will continue to.

      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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
