...eating off the kids' menu at the fast food restaurants is MORE than enough food!

...your clothing doesn't 'shrink' in the dryer any more, now it's all getting too big no matter HOW many times you run it through the dryer! :crying:

...you actually look FORWARD to getting on a plane for vacation because now you'll have room in the seat to move around!

...when you are trying on clothes in the fitting room and crying happy tears because you fit into a size you have seen since your teens! :crying:

...when all-you-can-eat buffets are now an ENORMOUS waste of your time and money, so you just don't go! :P

...when buying clothes in the cheap stores is no longer an issue because you're going to out-lose them in a few weeks anyway, so why spend a lot? :)

...when you're getting to be an expert at posting clothes for sale on EBay or Craigslist because your size keeps getting smaller...:lol:

Trying to figure out what size of clothes to by like should I get a med or large. Also when you are almost able to wear the same size as the teenagers in the house and you get the laundary all mixed up.

Have a great 4th.

You know you're a bandster when...

1) you buy chocolate chewable Multivitamins just to get some chocolate

2)a loveseat is a place you and your spouse can cuddle instead of just being a chair for you...

3)you eat a Jelly Belly jelly bean in your favorite soda flavor because you miss your Dr. Pepper..

4)when you dont consider candy orange slices a part of the fruit group...

:eek:

You increase the fuel miles on your car or truck because of less weight.

You medical costs go down and insurance does down as well.

When you get stuck and PB from a piece of meat that you just toothpicked out of your teeth and swallowed. This actually happened to me today.

1.When you put your jeans in the dryer on purpose.

2. when you are shopping and trying on clothes you have to go back out to the rack for smaller sizes.

6.asking the salesgirls in shops does this come in an 8?

3. when you have to TRY to get in enough calories.

4. when you go out for ice cream and wonder if the baby cone is too big.

5. when you have emergency PB bags stashed everywhere instead of emergency bags of potato chips.< /p>

...or when you order NO drink in a restaurant and the server looks at you funny and asks (in that "you are strange sort of way") "Are you SURE I can't bring you a glass of Water? ???"

      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!
