different for me when i stall out i up my carbs and the scale moves again then i up my Protein. i think everybody body different my sister can eat carbs all day never gain any weight eat too much meat and she gains weight. everybody says high fat but not for me even if all i eat is protien and fat i still stall so.i will always have faith in the calorie in vs calories out math. i never debate with anyone about this thing because i know what works for me and just keep tweaking it to find what works for you in the end. glad the scale moved!

The same for me. When I take in a low amount of carbs I stall and on top of that I don't have enough energy for my workouts which are pretty intense. All the times that I've lost weight in the past I never limited my carbs to a super low amount and I always had energy for workouts, which I have a history of doing plenty two-a-days a couple times a week. When I tried 30g or less i felt lightheaded a lot and even blacked out once in the shower after coming from the gym. Scary. I have up my carbs some and am doing wonderful on my progress. I actually just did a 10K at the track this morning in 1hr 20 min. Whew!!! I'm pooped! (but very proud) I am looking to decrease that time by my first 10K on April 11.

      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!
