Omgoodness i am in the same boat. Same situation. My Water intake could be a bit more I must say, my Protein is good and so is exercise. Even trying to up my water... which is hard, I'm drinking about 1/2 to 3/4 gallon. Sometimes I feel like I cannot take it.

Call your dr! We were taught in class that if you have a stall then to relax and know it happens!

Then:

-track your food for every meal

-track your Water every day and get the full 64 Oz in

-track your Protein

-track your exercise

Make changes to any part of the above that are not where they should be.

Then I hear everyone say to increase your exercise with something new while still doing what you were doing before.

I started kick boxing and I also walk. If I hit a stall then I plan to run my stairs and do my PiYo DVD workout.

Same boat here. I have been between 159-161 for a month. I exercise 6x a week and do intervals etc. I'm thinking my Protein has been lacking a bit. I am going back to tracking with my fitness pal and getting my protein in before anything else. Stalls are no fun.

Many times that I was stuck in a stall I would up my calorie intake and would start to lose again. Sounds odd but works.

Stalls are a normal, necessary, and natural part of the process.

Make sure you are getting in all of your Protein and fluids.

Try shaking up your routine. Try a different kind of exercise. Vary your calories.

If you are still unhappy with your progress or even just impatient, why not make an appointment with your NUT?

Embrace the Stall!

      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.

        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!
