I wonder who came up with the graphs in the first place.

Obese to me sounds quite nice to me too.:)

My niece (age 6) was playing with her friend in the playroom and I went to the bathroom (which is next to the playroom) and I hear.... "How come your aunt is so big but my mom is so skinny?" I was horrified! But a smile was brought to my face when my niece replied, "She isn't big, she's just a bit fluffy."

ROFLMAO @ fluffy

I know I really shouldn't think it is funny but I thought it was much better than being called fat by a 6 year olds. Was actually refreshing.

Emmy, one of my favorite NSVs was discovering that I was finally ON the chart at my gym. The BMI chart helpfully goes up to 38, and when I started this process my BMI was 47. So it took a while, but when I saw one day that I was actually ON that chart I was dancing for days. :)

Fluffy sounds good to me much nicer than fat lol. I was 44.9 when I had my surgery and I just worked it out again and now its 37.6 what a great feeling.

We should have our own LapBand BMI chart. You have to weigh at least 200 to find your BMI so skinny people can see what it's like to be non-existent.

      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!
