Hi all, 7 weeks out now and have lost 45lbs. I am currently on my second stall though. I have been exercising daily and eat around 700 caps. Only seem to stay the same on the scales. I have been losing inches though, on waist and chest. If I increase my Protein do U think I will start losing again? Thanks :)

I was sleeved on nov 7th. As of two weeks ago I lost 30. I made a decision to not step on the scale until my next dr appt which is next week. I have felt like I gained but maybe I'm just obsessing because now xl shirts fit me rather than 2x and I bought jeans rather than 20 an 18. I know inches are coming off but I'm feeling bloated and heavy. I made a deal with myself that I was not going to be a Slave to the scale because like all of us it took a while to get to the weight we were and its going to take a while to get to the weight we want to be. Hang in there and think positive. I know we will have stalls but our bodies will kick in especially when we are not stressed out over trying to get thin.

Hang in there !!!!

I'm also 7 weeks out and I'm into my third one. It sucks. I get 60+ grams of Protein, all my Water, and stay around 700 cals. I have gone from a 48 jean to a 40-38 and my 3xl shirts that were snug to xl. I know I'm shrinking but I have bounced between 300.4 and 302 for the last week. I just want the scale to start with a 2! I have lost 45# since surgery.

      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!
