Prrite...

Did your doctor tell you that you had a certain amount he wanted you to loose? I was told 15 lbs and I too am on my 10 day and lost 10 lbs...

I have my final all weigh-in on Friday, I doubt I will meet the full 15 lbs :-(.

Maybe 12?.

I have been having my 3 Protein shakes a day, some cooked broccoli or asparagus and broths. Still wish I could loose the full 15.

Good luck!

@Dawn....

I wasn't given any amount to lose. However, the NUT said that one "typically" could lose between 8 and 40 pounds. I'm not sweating it. I'm actually tickled to see this come off now....it's just that much less I have to lose later! Don't stress to much over it....115 hours - (8 am 7/21), we'll have different issues to deal with. Just remember,as a master of cliche's....Rome wasn't built in a day, and time heals all wounds. Stay positive - you got this! :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.

        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!
