I am three months out...I am just wondering about how many carbs you have each day? I have been trying to stay at or below the recommended 25 carbs per day, but I haved added a little more as of lately and it seems the pounds are dropping off faster now. Anyone had the same thing happen?

My dietician said no to go over 100 carbs a day. i stay around 60-70, when i was at 40 carbs i could barely make it through my hour workouts. I only eat complex carbs. Whole grains, fruits, veggies, nuts. Inless it is "cheatin Sunday" i dont eat white flour, anything with corn Syrup, white sugar and try to stay away from artifical sweetners. Im trying really hard to do more natural and get rid of everything artifical in my diet.

I stay around 50 most days. Some days less, some days more, but that's the average. My nut is not worried about carbs, but I feel I do better when I keep them under 100.

Oh yeah, I don't do any artificial sweeteners either. I hate the taste for one thing, but I feel like the real thing in small amounts is healthier.

Yeah, I am the same way. If I keep my carbs too low, I stall out for a bit. If I keep them 30g to 40g everything is pretty smooth. Everyone's body is 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.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
