I was sleeved April 26th but the second I started my period, I stalled. I'm wondering if there is a connection?? Maybe retaining Water or something?? I also had Mirena put in March 10th so I know that spotting and what not are normal for the first 3-6 months, but this is an actual period and I've stopped losing weight for the last few days. Anybody have similarities or know anything about this??

Every time I have my period I either gain a lb or two, or stall. Being a girl sucks

Thank you so much for replying to my question. I was really starting to wonder if I was the only one. I'm so crampy and blah feeling, I've been reading other period posts and it sounds like my carb cravings are pretty normal too. I haven't been hungry at all until 3 days ago when I started. Blah!! This sucks!!

Nope, Because a stall is a month with no movement of inches or Lbs,

So a stall has to be a month long?? Is that what the doctors say?? I've never heard that before, but I'm pretty new so, who knows!! I certainly didn't :-)

I have never heard that, lots of people complain about stalls a week, two etc.

Been here awhile and never heard the month thing before. Anyways, I always gain a lb or two before I start...I crave carbs also. But, the few days following I lose a few extra too...it's just Water weight.

I have had numerous stalls and none have lasted more then a week. And I always show extra on the scale with my periods post op. I think it seems to be a common thing from what I've seen on here and obesity help.

      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!
