How much did you lose the first week after your surgery? And what was your surgery day weight?

My surgery day weight was 228.8 (I started at 237 on the pre-op diet 1 week prior to surgery). My weight 1 week after surgery was 218.2. I am now 3 weeks and 1 day from surgery and I was 213.6 this morning.

If I'm reading your ticker right you are 5 days post-op and you have lost 1 pound? If you feel like things are going slowly, don't worry about it....you are likely retaining Water from the surgery and when the swelling goes down, so too will your weight.

Good luck!

I was 297 on my day of surgery on 9/18. One week later I had lost 13lbs, down to 284. I'll be 2 weeks post op tomorrow, but I don't go to the dr 'til next week, I don't have a reliable scale, but I know I lost this week. My pants are loose! Lol.

It took the first week post-op for me to lose the 5-6 pounds I had gained in the hospital. Until the last three days, it's been slow since, especially the 12-day stall I had. But the trend line on the app for my scale definitely shows progress.

      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.

        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!
