When they perform the operation, they pump your body with a lot of fluids and gases. As a result you gain some surgery weight. This should quickly go away. At this point you are around 11 days post-op. Your body is still trying to heal after the surgery. Give it a little time and stay on the regiment.

I stalled at two weeks post op, but third week started losing again, when I weighed in at 4 weeks I was so shocked too actually see a 26 lb. Weight loss, keep getting in your Protein, that's the most important :-) u can do it!

I am 4 days out of surgery. It went well, I got home, and wow did I miss the PCA! Also the easy out and back in bed. Everyday I feel better. My husband and I went for a stroll. It was so beautiful outside and I could smell every blossom. Heaven. My nose is supper sensitive and the house smells are hard to take. I ate yogurt today and it was good mixed with some vanilla Protein powder. Each new accomplishment feels satisfying. Go me.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.ย  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.ย  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? Itโ€™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 Iโ€™m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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.ย 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 โค๏ธย Together, we got this!
