Well, I've only barely made it, but gosh it feels good! This morning I stepped on the scale and it read 90.5kgs. I double checked 3 times to make sure I had the right number lol, then ran up stairs to convert it to pounds... 199.5!

It's been years since I've been here and gosh does it feel good hehe :)

Next small goal, 180 lbs - that's what I weighed before I got pregnant with my daughter. After I had her (7 years ago), I did the dreaded grapefruit juice diet for a few months. I went from 206 lbs to 180 lbs. Of course, when I stopped the diet I gained it all back and then some - haven't been under 200 since then.

I still have a quite skimpy skirt that I could (just barely) get into before I got pregnant with her. I plan on dragging it out of the closet in just a few months hehe (not that I'll ever wear it in public again lol, its probably the main reason I ended up pregnant *g*).

Thats so great. I made my first goal yesterday on the scale. I called my husband in to the bathroom so he could read the scale for me, I thought I was seeing things.

WTG!!!!! That's an outstanding accomplishment and I am so thrilled for you. Hearing others success helps me when my own seems to have stalled or strayed off the path. It truly is encouraging and as for that skirt, you wear it girl, you've earned it, even if you don't leave the house :- ]

Keep up the great work and thanks again for sharing with us!!!!

Are you finding the numbers that were hated enemies on the way up the scale are like old friends on the way down? I remember being tearful and depressed seeing 199 on the way up, but danced with joy to see it again years later on the way back down.

Dance with joy, you deserve it!

      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!
