I'm almost 9 months post op! I can't believe it. I feel great. I'm exercising, BUT...the scale does not seem to be moving anymore. I've been at 245 (down from 323 on surgery day) for almost 2 months.

Anyone else at this point in the journey and having similar issues? I blog/vlog about my journey and how it's changed my life. You can check it our at the link!

I am over 3 years post-op RNY gastric bypass surgery. At around 6 or 7 months, my weight loss stopped and I gently slipped into the Maintenance phase. This article describes my observations in the Maintenance Phase. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery2.pdf

I'm 9 months as well, and my weightloss is reaching a slowing point. It's not done, but the days of the 4lb overnight drop are long gone and I can go weeks without losing a lb and then lose 5 and then not lose for awhile. It's all part of the process as we get closer to goal. Just make sure you are still following your guidelines and keep from sabotaging yourself with little things you wouldn't allow in the beginning.

I am 2 months and 2 weeks. I was 288 before liquid diet and I am now 220. I was stuck in 230 a month after surgery. It was the worst. Then, I dropped to 225. Which I was for 3 weeks. I am now at 220

Keep working hard

I'm almost at 9 months and see a definate slowdown. I went from 10+ lbs/month to 7 and now to 4 lbs last month. Thank you to whoever posted the link to the maintenance phase.

Good news-hairloss is slowing down too.

      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!
