Proof that even thogh the scale is not moving you are losing



Recommended Posts

So for the last month I went up 4 pounds and then took a month to get down to 191 where I was when my weight shot up. Now the last week I have seen 188,189 and 190 on the scale different mornings,. Well as of today I had to ask for smaller pants in my work uniform as the waist and butt where clearly starting to hang all of the sudden even though the DAMN scale is not giving me any encouragement. While it feels good to know my pants got too big, it is till a mind mess to deal with the numbers on the scale.

It is so strange how that works! When I go through little stalls, it seems like my clothes keep getting bigger, too. You are doing so great!!! You will get there, I know it.:)

scales mess with my mind all the time. Last Wednesday I was 304.4 at the gym my wife and I are joining but today at my Dr. their scale says 305.2. My last post-op Dr. appt was right after reg Dr. and there was 3lbs diff between their scales. So I am not going to put a TON of faith in scales in this journey or I will choose one scale and use it to judge.

I tell the nurse when I go to the doc I have to weigh in room one! I will even wait for that room to open. I hate to use a scale that says I gained! I have found they are all different.

      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.

      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!
