No need to fear you will lose much more. We all hit stalls at some point. I have hit several stall throughout my journey. I am 5 month out now and I am presently in a stall. My starting weight was 297 I am 213 and have been for the past 2 weeks. So just stay focused on the big goal you have set for yourself. Stick to your diet increase your Water and make sure you are getting in all of your Protein that is required. Change up your exercise routine. Sometimes we have to push harder to get up the hill. Just know you are doing great you are down 40lbs in a month and a half something that beyond beyond amazing. Keep up the good work.

      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!
