Just Overweight - Yippee!



Recommended Posts

Hi fellow bandsters:

Another milestone this morning. My weight is now 189 and for my height that is considered to be "overweight" on the bmi scale. Having gone from 324 pounds - "Morbidly Obese" to just "overweight" is such a big accomplishment.

I wish you all these thrilling events too!

THANK YOU!!!! I so appreciate reading such a positive story! It seems most only share negative stories, and since I've paid my $$$ and am awaiting surgery on July 2nd, I really needed to hear this from you. My feet have been getting colder and colder by the day, but now I'm feeling a bit better! Congratulations on your great accomplishment. I hope to be one of the success stories like you!

I remember the day I became Merely Overweight Legster. The crazy thing was that with that same weighing I also became Merely Overweight Legster in Onederland. It was a great day. You have a great one, too!!!!

The good, all of it. The bad - stuck once bad. The ugly - the loose skin.

But overall, it's been great!

I'm going to post before & almost there's in July when it's my bandiversary.

Thanks for the good wishes, and the same to you.

Sue

Thanks legster:

We're both under 30 pounds to goal. Isn't it exciting. I know the losses are coming alot slower now for me. I hope we can both hit our goals by October.

WTG Sue! I'm sure it's been a long journey! Only continued success! I hope to join you in the "overweight" category soon too, which will be extremely exciting as I also was morbidly obese less than a year ago.

      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!
