Please tell me this stall will pass ( I know it will, but I need some good vibes!)

So UGH. I'm 3 weeks post-surgery and have been the same weight for the past 10 days. I know this is normal. I totally get that. However, I'm starting to have some wavering faith. Any advice to keep it all positive would be so greatly appreciated! :) Thank you!!

But you have already lost quite a bit, since surgery, right? That's awesome! Your body just needed to take a break. And, while the scale may not be changing, your body is. That's the best part.

Keep the faith!

My advice,stay away from the scale for a few days, follow your program and then weigh yourself maybe on Monday.

I'll bet you'll see a surprise.

Good luck

The same thing happened to me. You're going to have many of the stalls so don't fret it. I am now 6 weeks out had at least 3 stalls. To get my metabolism up I increased my activity I did some light weight lifting I also did some cardio and drink a lot of green tea. It only took one session of cardio and one session of mild weight lifting on my arms to get me back on track. If you do nothing to change the style will eventually and if you'd like to speed up so that it will end sooner then change up your routine a little bit.

You're definitely going to stall. Your body has just been through a major transformation! Like another poster said, it needs a break. It has to get use to the idea of what you have done. I went through quite a few stalls, especially early on. I know its hard to stay faithful, but you will get through it! Good Luck!

Thanks everyone! I had my husband put the scale in our scary garage so I won't be tempted to grab it, and I'm just going to chill out and not weigh for awhile. :) Hopefully that will help, along with mixing up the routine! I appreciate the advice and support!

I agree I am 4 months post opt and stalls will continue just stay focus and eat healthy, drink your Water and Protein and exercise, your bode will begin to loose weight again and remember just because the scale is not moving does not mean you are not loosing inches good luck.

      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!
