Non scale victory-bubble- bubble

Before my band I had gotten so fat I took only showers. It was too hard getting in and out of the bath tub. I was really missing long hot bubble baths. Well they are back! It is funny how you start doing certain things again without even realizing it. Like bubble baths, and wearing jeans with zippers. I was soaking in the bubbles today when i realized how much I loved this band. Well I am off to work a double shift at the shelter so Merry Xmas all. Donna:whoo::whoo::whoo:

Donna, your email reminds all of us how great this journey can be. I am still looking forward to jeans with zippers but it is funny the small pleasures we look forward to. I have enjoyed bending over easier and tying my shoes with more ease.

Thanks everyone. The little things really do make a big difference. Friends tell me I even walk differently now. I guess it is because I am not hauling so much with me. LOL Donna

Ahhh, isn't it wonderful to be able to take a bubble bath and actually be able to have your entire body submerged in Water instead of having the ol' belly sticking up and freezing?! That was an awesome feeling.

Donna, way to go. I love the NSV's. I went to dinner at the parents today and my aunt looked right at me and didnt know who I was. I havent seen her since before the journey began. Keep it up, you are doing great...Dave

MY OWN NSV!

Went to BIL/SIL house today. Ate 2 shrimp, 1/2 of the inside of a stuffed cabbage, a little potato salad and a little creamy Jello stuff ( cool whip, pudding kind of thing). I had no dessert/ no wine or drinks.

One other meal today (b'fast) scrambled egg and one piece whole wheat toast.

Feel so good that I had control (this year at least).

I have one week to get below 200 (aiming for 198 by 12/31) and I so want to be there.

      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!
