I should have posted this last Sunday, but I ran a half marathon and broke 2 hours for the first time. I know a lot of runners train for years to complete that milestone, so I'm pretty happy with that!

a bittersweet win: i find i don't need nor rely on this forum as much as i used to.

🥹

i am more and more no longer identifying as a WLS patient nor "former obese person". i'm just me. i find im not so scared about "getting fat" again, and sort of just know in my bones that i've got this, no matter what comes my way.

confidence is honestly THE best thing to come out of all of this.

❤️

@ms.sss I love that! That's awesome... yeah In other groups I'm part of people talk about not wanting to be identified as this WLS "patient" they feel that they have always been someone else ..that is not their whole being so I love that you go chick!

This f**king journey is hard as hell I commend anybody who gets through this journey successfully so if you can get through this journey. You can Get through anything that includes tackling regain if you have regain or you can do anything your mind sets out to do it's hard it requires that much discipline so if you can be disciplined in this, you could be disciplined in anything.

I can totally relate to this, 2 years out from surgery. I was beginning to think I might not see my end goal weight of 150. Until a couple weeks ago. I was bouncing around 155-160 for the longest of time and was resigned to the fact that the rebound weight everyone talked about here had happened or maybe my goal was just off. I was perfectly happy to remain in the 150s, but I'll admit I'm pleasantly surprised. And fitting into a size 6. Sometimes a 4 depending on the clothing item. Dreams really do come true. LOL

This forum has been such a help to me during the whole process. I'd like to thank you all for your advice and encouragement. It was and is priceless to me. Will periodically check in and I continue to wish everyone here much success and boundless health. ❤️

My win for the week is that I’m finally getting back to the fitness level I was at before my 7-week break. I’m almost lifting as heavy as I was, my endurance is better, and overall I’m feeling really good about my progress. I’m trying not to focus too much on the number on the scale (still being mindful) but paying more attention to how my clothes fit, how I look, and how I feel health-wise.

A couple small wins yesterday.

Small, but I take note of them and small wins encourage the behaviors that lead to bigger wins, right ?

So...this 'un is a two parter.

Several months ago, before I

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
