I really MUST get someone to take a photo of me in a pair of my old jeans, its freaking hilarious. My 4 year old fits in them with me, with room to spare!

This is the hubby and I at my Aunt's lake house this past 4th of July. I am at my worst here. This is before my hubby started his new job and is required to loose weight and work out daily. He looks fantastic. I am miserable and can't wait to look as good.

I'm not where I want to be yet, but it's been 1 year, so I'm posting pics. I'm down 44 pounds from surgery date. Hopefully year 2 is even better!

Not sure if these will come out, and sorry if they are so big, I don't know how to make them smaller? I'm down 17 1/4 inches lost this month. I've lost a total of 41 pounds including my pre-op diet.

Just some updated pics of me at the gym this morning. For what its worth, I don't think that BMI is correct. I'm down to a 36" waist now and have 22" arms so I don't really consider that BMI number from TickerFactory to be accurate, but maybe someone knows more about it and can clue me in as to how those numbers are calculated.

Posting these pics is like therapy. Letting go of my "old" body is going to be harder than I thought. It's hard to believe that I am so much smaller...

Everyone looks amazing in this thread and it is so inspiring! I have always HATED cameras and did not take any true 'before' pictures. My friend encouraged me to take new pictures and dig up old pictures so I could SEE the difference and well I was kind of shocked once I put this collage together. I am still a work in progress but this is what I have so far...

      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!
