My first stall :-(



Recommended Posts

I had bypass on 8/10 and I've lost 32 pounds. This week I've only lost one. It was my first week back at a desk job and I've worked out twice. I'm frustrated because everyone is telling me it's normal but I still feel bummed.

Plenty of posts on this subject, but it looks like you and I had are surgeries on the same day. I lost 24 pounds in the first 3 weeks post-op, but I've been stuck here since then, even gaining back 6 pounds. I'm a little disappointed too, but I've lost and gained weight so many times (before surgery) that I'm used to these stalls. Even on my pre-op diet I lost 30 pounds in a couple of months and then stalled out for three more months before dropping another 20-25 pounds right before my surgery (some of that aided by the clear liquid diet). Hang in there! I know I am! :)

I wouldn't consider a 1# loss a stall. Stalls are typically no losses over multiple weeks.

In weeks where I lost 1#, I typically came back the following week losing 4 or so. Keep at it, it'll happen!

If you are losing anything you are not in a stall. Your body needs time to breathe a little, give yourself a break!

      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!
