Almost 1 Year Out And Ive Lost Too Much Weight



Recommended Posts

Your BMI is still on the higher end of the healthy weight range, so I wonder if some of your concern is due to perceiving yourself differently - unless, of course, you've dropped lots of weight since you last updated your signature. Like others said, try to up your calories through liquids. Weight training is also good for putting on some healthy weight AND improving your strength, since it sounds like strength is a concern for you.

HOLD THE PHONE!!!!

ok i try not to disagree with people since we are supposed to be supportive to one another, but i have to say this... please DO NOT START BAD HABITS NOW!

You obviously had the surgery because you were overweight which mean early on in your life you picked up a bad habit. eatting ice cream everyday is not gonna be a good habit to pick back up. You are young and so im sure right now you have a higher metabolism than most, and because you are active at work its probably keeping it that way, but with age your metabolism will slow.. trust me, and if you pick up these habits now you will most likely wind up gaining weight that you did mean to later on.

my suggestion to you is start hitting the gym and doing strenght training, weights, bells, circuit training, obviously you don't need to really do a lot of cardio, but this way you can pack on a healthy weight because of muscle gain instead of fat weight from high sugar content. take in a good amount of Protein to help build and recover muscle before and after training.. most of the guys i know that wanna pack on muscle to gain weight injest between 60-120 grams of Protein a day depending on your activity level.

I just really wanna caution you on eatting fatty, sugary foods to gain weight, because its not the type of weight you want to put on.

good luck to you tho.

      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!
