Stopped Losing...



Recommended Posts

Hey I was banded on 7/7/11 and have since lost 60 lbs, but ended up developing gallstones and pancreatitis. I had my gallbladder removed on 11/3/11 and have not been able to lose anything for the last month. I haven't gained, but have maintained. I really want to drop some more weight and could use some insight from those who have maybe struggled with this issue.

Thanks!!!

I haven't lost in months. But I also haven done what I was supposed to do. Make sure your not drinking with meals and be sure to eat the right things... Low carb high protien. everyone stalls. You will start losing again. Congrats on your loss already!

My first thought is that your body is still trying to recover from the gallbladder removal so that may be why you're not losing. As long as you're doing everything right the weight should start coming off again soon. Good job on your weight loss so far!

I agree with Jenn. Your body could still be recovering from the recent surgery. Don't get discouraged. Just stay on track.

I also stopped losing but it was because i have been grazing, eating fatty foods and pop. I have to get back on track with my dieting.

      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.

      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!
