I would trust the dr.'s scale. And for my first post-op appt., I took my new scale (it's lightweight) with to the office so I could see how different they were. Mine says .8 lighter than the dr.'s scale.

This is exactly WHY i have been preaching all over this forum not to weigh yourself all the time. . . only at the doctor. . . I threw out my scale the day i came home from surgery . . . and now only weigh at my doctor appts. . . do you know how shocked i was when at my first week and half out of surgery the doctor scale showed i lost 32lbs? Then at my 7 week out i had lost 53lbs? it is so great not being a slave of the scale . . . these home scales are such a farce . . . i only believe in the doctor scale. . . good luck to you. . .

Ok I am really thinking of tossing my scale, I have been gaining weight because I am so afraid of something getting stuck! Today I was "29 lbs to lose" that is only 4 lbs from when I started seriously thinking of the revision. It is 9 lbs up from my lowest weight with the band. I get my unfill 3/1. :thumbup1:

So glad when this obsession is finally over!:thumbup1:

On a positive note off the caffeine. Only drinking Decaf tea. Don't drink coffee (latte now and then-will get decaf) Ok I know chocolate has caffeine but not there yet! :001_smile:

      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?
