Only 3# lost, 9 days since Sleeve!



Recommended Posts

Come on guys, I was doing way better than this BEFORE my surgery! And I only had IV fluids @80ml hour for 12 hours so I'm not in Fluid overload. I'm only drinking clear liquids, my bowels are moving fine now, I'm off the pain meds except Tylenol. As an RN I can't think of a rational medical reason for this! I am walking, not sedentary I've given the starvation mode theory some thought but lost like a boss on the pre op liquids!

Today is my 8 week mark and I am down 21 since surgery (42 total). I am a much slower looser than most on here. I was 222on the morning of surgery. I do not exercise every day and I know that is probably a big part of the issue along with often being shy of my Protein goal. I am a work in progress. I am going to my first support group tonight and hope to learn something new. Good luck on your journey!

      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!
