I've lost about 4lbs this month but stalled for the last 2-3 weeks. I know that it's been socializing and not having as much control over my food. I know I haven't worked out enough. I need to get back on treacle! I'm down about 53lbs on 5 months.

53 lbs is AMAZING!! I cannot wait until my 12/28 surgery and I will then get to share amazing losses like you!

I have read a lot about stalls and how much they can mess with our heads. I am sure I too will have stalls.

I told my husband about stalls and to remind me to:

Increase my calories to about 200 a day more.

Track everything I eat.

Track my 64 ounces of Water.

Track my exercise and add something different.

Please keep posting back and remember stalls end!!

Just remember its not a race to the finish. Stay the course and you will get there. You know what you need to do and keep at it!

have been hovering between 250 to 253 the past couple weeks. I have been bouncing up and down. I have finally started working 2 days a week with a personal trainer to lay the foundation to join her group exercise classes.

Well I stepped on the scale this morning and it was 249.3. I wanted to cry cause I was so happy to get out of the 250s. I haven't been at that weight since I was 18.

      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!
