Got a fill but still eatting and not losing?



Recommended Posts

Okay, I am down 25 pounds. The scales have not really moved in over a month. I got my first fill last Tuesday. I eatting but am not feeling stuffed full that I thought I would be feeling. I was filled 1.5cc and my stomach is 1 ounce?

I know I'm eatting more than one ounce at a time.

Any suggestions here?

I am starting Curves in the morning and I'm hoping that just more excersise will get the scales moving again?

Like now I think I'm hungery? I could eat now...

I've have today:

1-6oz glass oj--Breakfast

Lunch-

rib meat 8 to 10 small bites

3 tablespoons mash potato

1 teaspoon applesauce

walked outside working hanging christmas lights

dinner

1/2 cup refried bean, cheese, cream cheese with 4 chip

snack

6 bites pieces of carmel corn-*I know I should have passed*

I have also had 6- 8oz glasses of tea with lots of ice

What am I doing wrong? Does this sound normal for just getting a fill?

HELP!!!

:cry

You are doing nothing wrong. Yes, it is normal after the first fill, even the second, even the third. For me, I may have true restriction after my second (2.7ccs in a 4cc band).

Congrats on your 25 pound weight loss. If you continue to plateau and you know it's not the amount or the kind of food you are eating, then another fill may be in order.

You're doing great!

Here's what I noticed. You are eating too much sugar. Fruits and carbs are sugar. juice is really something to avoid because it's pure sugar to your body. If you're still healing than ignore me, but if you're not then you need to find more Protein and complex carbs to eat.

*Most of what I'm telling you I learned as gestation diabetic with my 2nd pregnancy.

BBQ sauce has sugar added, so in addition to the other sugar foods you ate with dinner you are on sugar overload.

Your doing just fine!!! And normally the amount of food is measured after the chewing.. not before.

If your on a plateau the weight is not getting less but surely your measurements are.

Congrats on ur weightloss!!!!!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
