Thank you. I'm just upset because this has been a long standing issue when I tried to lose weight before surgery. I would get close to onderland and then start regaining weight. I'm upset that I've had over half my stomach removed and still can't get under 200.

Hang in there this is the time you need to be strong because the sleeve WILL get you into onederland. Just try not to stress about it. This is very different from anything you have tried before. If you stick to the plan and keep moving the weight will eventually start to move again. I know because the same is happening to me but I look at my husband who was done at the same time as I was and he is already at goal. Frustrating but a great motivator to me to show me it does work just faster for some.

Hang in there. Probably time to switch something up. It slows down for everyone at a certain point, but if you keep your body guessing you can get it going again.

I was stalled at 266 for about 2 months; then all of a sudden I dropped to 254. Not sure what I did differently! LOL Watching my intake, excersizing and trying to do everything right. So close to the 100 lb mark just can't seem to get there. Still a long way to go but happy I've gotten as far as I have. :D

      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!
