Tom Question For The Ladies



Recommended Posts

Okay, I am at such a loss!!!! I stalled out around 7/15/12 for about 2 weeks then around the 30th I lost 5 lbs then got down another 4lbs. In the last week I have gone UP 4 lbs. so in a month's time I have only lost 3lbs. I know it is around TOM and I started working out this past Monday, but anyone have any ideas on YYYYYY this is happening. I am getting anywhere from 800 to 1000 calories a day and about 40-60 grams of carbs. 60+ on Protein and 8-10 glasses of liquid (water w/crystal light or unsweet tea w/sweet n low). I am sooo frustrated please any advice would help, I am crying almost daily.

It happens to me all the time, completely normal. I stall for 1-2 weeks, lose a few, lose a few more and stall again. I try to mix it up when that happens, up my food intake a bit, change my workout routine and drink a couple more glasses of Water, normally breaks the stall in a couple days for me. I feel your pain....it sucks! Give it a try and see of it helps. The TOM doesnt help either, I normally retain a few lbs of water weight then too! Best of luck and hugs to you!

This is how I feel exactly today! I feel my TOM coming and I always get symptoms a week before including the bloating so I've been going from 222-224 and it's frustrating! I wanna be under 220 already . Started working out this week and it feels good.

That's great! I'm wondering if I'm a considered a slow loser ? 28 pounds in since preop and got sleeved July 7, so that's 20 pounds since my sleeve date (6 weeks)

      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!
