2 Weeks Out And Not Loosing



Recommended Posts

i am so frustrated. I was loosing really good, I lost 9 lbs on pre op diet, then 18 lbs one week into the surgery. I haven't lost a single pound after that. I started eating enough Protein n drink enough Water but I'm not loosing. I'm on the puree phase right now. For Breakfast I will have 2 egg whites, lunch I will have tuna n dinner I will have some type of soup( blenderized). Can someone please help me?

I lost 7 on the pre op diet and lost alot the first 2 weeks and then hit a stall right before the third week started. I was irritated greatly by this and thought that I wouldn't lose any more weight. I was in a stall for a week and a half. I started losing again after that. You will hit stalls and then start losing again. THere is no need to fret, just get Protein in and drink your fluids. I am nine weeks out and have lost 35 pounds. Don't worry and everything will be fine.

Please. remember your body is going through changes. You will NOT lose a certain number of pounds every day. You just won't. Your body is adjusting. You're 2 weeks out from surgery. There's nothing wrong, you're just hitting a point where your body needs to adjust. THROW OUT YOUR scale. A watched pot never boils.

I am three weeks out. Just started mushy foods. I had lost 26 total at two weeks out. Then I hit a stall for a week. Today I weighed and i'm down three more pounds. I had talked to the doctor and they said your body is just adjusting to everything and this will happen. I am sure you are losing inches still. So don't worry, you'll be fine!!

Please stop weighing yourself every day. It will drive you crazy. I am a victim of the scale. In the beginning, I didn't bother weighing myself and was very happy :). Then I decided I wanted to see how many pounds I would loose over night. That's when I noticed that I was in a stall. I have a hard time staying away from the scale now. I am trying to not weigh myself until Valentine's day which is next week.

Eat alot of Protein, drink alot of Water, and just focus on enjoying today. You will do fine with your weight loss! Trust me. You will lose it. ;)

      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!
