I am a little bummed. I am two and a half weeks post op and I do not feel like I'm losing much weight. Am I over reacting? Is this just in my head? I lost more during my week of liquids Pre op than I have post surgery. I lost 14 pounds Pre op and I still haven't lost a total of 20 pounds yet. Is something wrong????

Oh hun....I am so sorry u r stressed out over this...our heads get in the way so much. I m one day ahead of u post op and my surgeon said it is all in my head. I'm doing everything the doc is telling me he said to quit com pairing myself to others and enjoy my own journey.

Hang in there. Losing over 14 in 4 weeks is awesome!

Totally uersand how you feel. I am 4 weeks out and have lost 25 since the two weeks before. I have been stalled for 2 weeks and I was expecting more to drop and now i feel like my worst fear has come true that i am going to be at this weight forever.

Post surgery drama. Disregard and move on... it gets better and the weigh MELTS off.

Stay off the scale for a few days and drink your Water and eat right - you will amaze yourself.

Very normal when you have a pretty good loss pre-op. Hang in there, it will come off. Just follow your nutritionist's guidelines.

      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!
