Need Ideas How To Lose Weight!



Recommended Posts

O it's been 2 weeks since surgery! And I've only lost 7 pounds! I am not able to eat eggs and mashed potatoes. I am walking but no extra exercises! So everyone else who had their surgery the same day has lost much more, around 19-31! I had a lot to loose. I was 127kg before surgery and now I am 120kg and I should only weight in at 70kg. I am 5"9

I am on medication due to an infection but other then that I am good! I eat eggs in the morning and Soup or potatoes at night. I eat yogurt for a snack. HELP

Hi there, we all lose weight at different rates. You probably know that.

You are also on a medication due to an infection, that could be messiing your metabolism up.

Don't give up

Remember 7 lbs - is 7 lbs. closer to goal

:)

Things will get better, they really will. Eating so very little, following dr. instructions you can't help but lose.

best wishes

Hi :) please never use the word "only lost " instead say I lost 7 lbs :) . I think 7 lbs is a lot in 2 weeks . Try to not compare yourself with others . We are all different .

Is funny how much we want this weight to come off so fast but it took us years to put the extra weight on . The weight will come off , do not stress yourself . Stick with the sleeve rules and you will success. One day at a time . You are doing fantastic , good luck .

If you are down from 127 kg to 120 kg then you have actually lost almost 15 1/2 pounds since there is a little over 2.2 pounds per kg. before you get discouraged make sure you are converting the numbers correctly.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting 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.
