I weigh myself on the wii scale then I weighed myself with the surgeons scale. PCP doctor weighed me on his scale and grandbabies bought me a scale too. They all have different numbers? SMH

I always weigh first thing in the morning when I get up & go to the bathroom. I use our bathroom scale. I just always keep that in mind when I weigh at the doctor's office since I have more clothes on & may have eaten or whatever.

just stick with the same one every time you weigh to measure by. I use the wii. I have been weighing myself on it for 2 years now so it tracks it all for me....I can see the graph and everything. :)

I do the same thing... My drs. scale makes me 3 lbs heavier... I told him I like my scale better, he said it really doesn't make that big of a difference, as long as as I'm still showing a loss...

Yeah just find one scale and stick with it, or figure out the difference between the scales. My gym and surgeon office scales are 3 pounds off.

I had a follow up appointment with my surgeon. So after my appointment, I drove to Walmart and stepped on every scale until the weight matched my surgeons office and bought that one. Silly, I know. But I got tired of so many different numbers.

thanks every one i weigh myself in the morning at the same time every day. I do this after my shower. The difference is five pound between the doctors scale and the new and wii scale.

i will continue using the wii scale because it tracks for me

      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!
