I lost 8 lbs in the 2 weeks post op during my liquid stage. Then it has slowed to another 2 lbs the next two weeks. I won't get my first full for two more weeks and I'm hungry!!

Oh I had also lost 6 lbs pre op. :)

Right after surgery I did gain 6 lbs back due to whatever they pumped me with. My 8 lbs noted above are from morning of surgery itself and not the gain immediately post surgery, if that makes sense.

I lost 7 pounds preop. Then I lost 10 pounds for a week and half post op. Then it really slowed down for a bit. I came to realize though, that I was building up toward my period. Once I had my period, I started losing again. I will say though, that I have really been watching what I eat and I started walking on the treadmill.

from surgery 284lbs to my first post op check up which was 2 weeks i lost 22 lbs. i know this because i keep a journal. i recommend a journel of some type. right now it really helps to keep track of my medical problems so i don't have to remember when i am talking to the doctor.

I lost 20 on the pre-op....

Post op I lost 8 the first two weeks and then 10 over the next month.

Everyones pre and post op are going to be different.....I had 2 week liquid pre-op then 2 week liquid post op then 2 weeks mushies and then onto solids...

Hoping you are not doing any comparing with all these #'s...everyone loses at different rates!

So far I am super excited about my losses...just taking it one day at a time! :)

I lost 8-10 lbs pre-op. I'm now one month and a week post surgery. I've lost a total of 30lbs from October 2013-now. I dropped weight fast from the day of surgery until about 3-4 weeks. Now that I'm eating more type of foods, I'm averaging 1-3 lbs a week or so.

I lost 7 # pre-op on the 10 day liquid diet, then I lost another 15 # the next 2 -3 weeks post-op, then nothing since, it will be a month post op on Sunday the 19th, kinda getting discouraged but I have noticed that I have lost quite a few inches too! I also keep a journal of my weight and measurements ! I have to keep track of this oh so important journey that I am on!

I am one week and two days post op and as of this morning have lost 15.5 pounds post op. I'll take it. I have to do full liquids the rest of this week and then mushies for three more weeks before seeing my doc.

      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!
