why the scale plays mind tricks. our bodies change weight constantly and hard to make an accurate reading. drink a 20 oz soda and you gain. pee it out and you most likely lost. i went through that scale habit for alot of years. if i gained, my day was shot. if i lost, it was party time.

you are doing fabulous. just because the scale says you gained, did you? go by your clothes fitting looser and you feeling better.

YOU GOT this GF....only weigh once a week at same time. say sun morning at 9......

I do weigh daily but only record my weight once a week. I sometimess find that if we have done really well eating and exercising for a few days u sort of get a delayed reaction on the scales, not always, and if u have eaten too much it might not show up for a day or two, just one of the mysteries of life i think :)

I should put on my profile that I'm a male. For the life of me I don't remember why I picked the name "DIFA" for here. I'm sure its an acronym.

I threw my scale away and didn't weigh myself for a month! Imagine my surprise when I wasn't freaked out all the time. I did have some anxiety when I went to the Dr's and weighed in, but I had lost 8lb in a month. We did not put this weight on all at once and its not going to come off all at once! Also, Water retention plays a huge roll in what you weigh, stay away from salt and your body will shed those extra oz of water.

      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.

        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!
