Knew it was going too happen



Recommended Posts

Sleeved June 1st. Have been doing great from the beginning, losing at a good pace- 50 lbs gone. I have been walking 6 days a week 3-5 miles ea day. Then I started to work out, taking Pilates class 2x week and a power (cardio,stretching class) 1x week. The losing train stopped dead in its tracks. I have read so many stories about this happening but it still kind of hurts. I'm going to keep it going and hope for the best. Anybody else doing the same?

Welcome to your first (of many most likely) stall!

It's completely normal, and to be expected. You should definitely take measurements now (waist, hips, chest, arms, legs) and track that every month along with the weight. When the scale isn't budging, there is a good chance that you're losing fat and gaining muscle - and you should see that both in the way your clothes fit and in the measurements themselves.

Keep drinking your Water, eating your Protein and sticking with the food plan you were given and exercising. If you stop losing and don't see any progress measurement wise for longer than a few weeks, then start looking at your diet and cut back on the carbs and see if that doesn't help get the loss kickstarted.

      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.

      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!
