I have to start by saying "I am soo happy and grateful for my sleeve". But please lord tell this is not the end! I was sleeved on nov. 4th. I have lost a total of 82lbs. That is great, I would of never done it on my own. Now I have hit a stall and have not lost anything in a month. No loss of lbs or inches. This can't be it... I have plenty more to go. I went from 308 to 226! Don't quit on me now!!!!!

I have read else where that when people go thorough a major stall they go back to basics, the post op diet and even mushy food for a week or two and it jump starts them. Good luck! 82 lbs is AWESOME!

I seem to lose more slowly then most people, but that's okay. I got sick on being on a low carb diet so I went off and did weight watchers a couple of times. I did end up losing some weight on this kind of diet but not hardly enough. I got off it about a month ago, and I only lost 6 pounds in the whole long month. I basically average around 15 pounds a month when I count my carbs and count my Protein. I have never lost less then 10 pounds a month while on this diet and that includes taking a few days off a month to enjoy some carbs. I would just go back to basics, before surgery I could count calories and lose weight but that doesn't work for me anymore. I have to eat low carbs and high protein to lose. I don't know why this is, but I know what works and I stick to that. good luck.

      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!
