We are all busy, what with kids, family, work, running here and there. What can you delegate to someone else to give yourself a 1/2 hour a day? Do you get a lunch hour? Have a quick snack before and then a walk, maybe another snack mid afternoon. Do you have children old enough for chores? Have them run the vaccuum, or empty the dishwasher, or fold the laundry or clean up after dinner while you put in an exercise DVD or walk the dog, etc. We have to learn to make time for ourselves if we want a healthier lifestyle. Maybe the key is to UNschedule a little.

Ok, here's an obvious one, but we often forget the little things add up. Like parking the car in the last spot from the store. Walk your booty all the way from the end of the parking lot. You'll be glad you did. it all adds up.

      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!
