not long to the anniversary, cant believe the year has gone by so quickly. I want another 10 pounds off by the anniversary. The exercise bike will be my new BFF!

Hi to all, how are you guys doing?

Zero change for the past six weeks, so that's not good. On the other hand, that is exactly the point where it got too cold to ride my bike to work anymore (18 miles round trip daily) so its not like I'm shocked that when the biking stopped the weight loss "coincidentally" stopped too. Feeling OK about at least holding steady, but will have to find something to replace the exercise until May. My BMI is down to 29.1, so I'm feeling pretty healthy in a size 12.

Hi All, I am still plugging away. I just had to realize I am losing normally, now- about 1-2 # per week. I have plateaus, too. Have lost 100# since admitting I needed Surgery, and 70# since Surgery. Bad news is I have 70 more to go. I am walking ion indoor routes at work and at the gym. i may try volks-walking or something. ( No running) I hit 219 # yesterday!

Hi ALL, Still at 219 But that is better than 320!!!I lost a few # at once so it will be a while before I lose more. That's OK.

Hi Am at 219 # at the moment. nhave had problems with my gal bladder and it comes out on the 22nd. Hopefully that will make the weight loss easier A the moment, I think 215 # would be a resonable fogoal for Dec.

Hello Everyone, I haven't posted in a long while and I have had some great success. I have lost 31 pounds since my last post and a total of 73.2 pounds since my surgery. My anniversary of my band is next Wednesday and I am hoping to be at 75 pounds total loss. I will try and keep up with my posting. I go back to the Doctor on January 26th and hope to be 10 more pounds lighter. I am exercising more and that helps a lot. My goal for January is 10 pounds.

Hi All,

215 for Dec may have been reasonable but this gall bladder thing is a real pain ( literally) I can eat mashed potatoes and yogurt. Anything else causes problems. Am about 222# at the moment. I haven't felt like exercising,or walking. Surgery is Tuesday, hopefully I can get back on track.

      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!
