Alot of people tell me it's normal I'm doing everything right and one day ill step on the scale and be down 5-10 pounds.. I'm praying for that day. Because after this crazy surgery I get terrified at stand stills :(

I think it's normal. I seem to stall about every 20 lbs or so. I used to panic..but now I just go with the flow. Keep eating right and getting your Protein and you will do fine. =o)

A lot of people not only hit their first plateau at 2 weeks post op, but some (myself included at 6 months post op) go up a pound or two before the free fall starts again. Just hang in there and keep doing the right things!!

As hard as it might be.... Step away from the scale!!! It will drive you nuts. I took mine to my moms and weight once a week. I've heard of husbands taking the scale out the house. Measure your self. Stalls happen. And it's hard not to become scale obsessed.

      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!
