Hey everyone I'm 2 weeks out and I'm stalled...I'm not allowed to start excersising until week 3 so I'm wondering if that may be doing it...I was allowed to move to blends like 3 weeks prior to what they told me...and I do like the mashed potatoes :)and the scrambled eggs :)

I had surgery on April 4th and haven't weighed myself since. I think I'm scared of becoming too obsessed with the scale, and too defeated when I see a stall. From what I've seen on here stalls early on are normal because of all the healing your body is doing, etc. I'm sure those more experienced than I will have some good insight!

Don't worry I'm stalled too. Sleeved 4/5/12

Saw surgeon today he said its perfectly normal. He said its better to lose steady than quickly. Gives ur body time to catch up.

I am in the same boat as you. Had my surgery on March 28th and have been stalled since the 2 week mark. From what I have read it is very normal and we just have to keep with the program.

Ah, the infamous and almost universally experienced (and hated!) 2- to 3-week stall! Y'all should feel like part of the club for sure now! :-) Seriously, stalls reek, but they do occasionally happen along. No panic, no worries--just keep doing what you're supposed to do, and the weight loss will pick right back up again.

Congratulations to all of you on joining the losers' bench!

Ok point to remember from someone in another thread and I thought that's one for slow losing.... your skin will rebound better whenever you lose slower. That's a win from being slow losing right? Hang in there!

When I told my NUT that, she said "who told you you were supposed to be losing in the second week?" She said that the body is just getting used to the Fluid changes and not to worry about weight loss because it was for sure going to happen, but the body needs time to adjust. No worries. In my third week now, and it is adjusting and losing!

      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!
