Oh, Hello there, NSVs



Recommended Posts

So, I've experienced quite a few NSVs as of recent. I can cross my legs (not super comfortably yet, but hey); I'm in a size 14/16, down from a 26; and I see my collarbones. Yay!

2 1/2 months out - 50 lbs lost post surgery and an additional 54 lbs was lost before (on my own, July 2019).

I'm walking fast and exercising amazingly. This, all from the woman who got winded walking down the block to her car.

Life is good! :)

That's awesome!!!

I am one week post op, but down almost 30 pounds... this morning, I put all my rings back on (including my wedding ring, which I had to use lotion to get onto my fingers) and it just slipped right on.

I squealed with delight lol. ❤️

In February I'm getting a new tattoo on my upper arm and this is HUGE for me because I was always so embarrassed by my flabby arms. I'm not quite in gun show territory (yet!) but I'm no longer ashamed!

      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!
