What Type Of Scale Do You Have?



Recommended Posts

i am 4 weeks post op today and i still do not own a scale! can anyone recommend a good one that doesnt cost a whole lot? im disappointed with the cheap usual scale you see everywhere and i spent $40 on a digital one from Walmart and it would always differ between 1 to 6 lbs. so thats not very accurate! it also died in like 9 mths! thanks in advance!

I finally broke down this weekend and purchased one from Walmart, the link is below. It is not fancy but hopefully it will provide a somewhat accurate reading. I will know for sure when comparing with the doctor's office.

I bought a new scale when I had surgery last month. I bought an Eatsmart Precision Plus Digital scale for $36.95 through Amazon. It had good reviews and I thought the price was reasonable. I am very pleased with it. It is much more accurate than my old dial type scale and I like the digital feature.

      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!
