Starting weight: 234

Surgery day 4/30/12: 215

One week postop: 217

I'm really not having the pounds drop off like everyone else. It super discouraging :-(

Not a good week. Probably because I'm on a full diet now. Here goes:

Last week 264

Today 5/18/12 267

Original weight 297

I'm a little disappointed but better luck next week.

Don't get discouraged! You could be not getting enough Water now that you've up your diet or it could be just your body adjusting! You'll do great I just know you will!!!

I have heard that the less you weigh on surgery day the slower it comes off! Don't get discouraged I've been at 180 for well over a month now and I've gone up to 190 and back down to 180 over that time frame! We can all do it!!!

So I weighed myself today since I didn't weigh in yesterday because I forgot!! I just knew not to do it but I was so hoping I'd loose this week! I think I did great considering I was out of town and not on my diet like I do at home I had no Protein for 3 days while I was out of town and when I got back aunt flow decided to rear her ugly face LOL!

Last week 05/11: 180.2

This week 05/18: 180.6

So I gained .4!! Not so bad just wish it was a loss not a gain! Oh well there's always next week!!

I think I need a bit of a pep talk here. I did my weigh in on Monday and I was 315 which is what I was 2 weeks ago. I'm certain I am getting my Protein in but anyone feeling stuck lately? I'm 27 days post op and down 17 pounds since surgery.

I had the same experience you are going through. I lost 18 lbs within the first 2 weeks of surgery but then plateau for about a week or two- then dropped again. I think this is quite common. I'm experiencing it again at -35lbs, I've have budged in about a week.

You've hit a plateau. Make sure you r getting all of your fluids in....your body is adjusting to your new metabolism. Try not to get discouraged and hang in there...you will be okay: )

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart! I really needed that encouragement. I'm so jealous of everyone else who has lost 20+ pounds while at the same time, I've lost 9!

      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!
