My doctor said one thing😮‍💨🤯



Recommended Posts

So my doctor told me that I would stop at 150pounds being that my starting weight was 217. I am now 140 pounds while I’m not complaining. I’m praying that I don’t go any lower. I hope all is well with everyone.

Looking fabulous.

I am surprised a doctor would tell you how your body will stop at a particular weight, mine just mentioned a target but said not to put pressure on myself to reach it as my body would do the work with me. Everyone's body will react differently and find its own rhythm and adjust for the changes in movement, diet etc.

I went down to 61.5kg / 135lbs and panicked a bit as I felt I looked terrible, really gaunt and tired in the face, but over the last couple of months I have gone back up a few kg to bounce between 64kg and 65kg (141lb & 143lbs) and feel and look much better for it. Your body, and your mind, will find it's healthy place soon enough I am sure.

      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'. ???

        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.

      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!
