Sorry if someone has already posted about this. But I am into my week 3. I hear that it is a spot where people stall or can be a hard week. I decided not to jump on the scale to not discourage myself. And really focusing on Water intake. But did anyone experience hunger during this week? All of a sudden today I am hungry and craving foods. This is the first time I have really felt like this since surgery. Just wondering how week 3 went for everyone else.

21 days here. I only weigh once a week. It would be impossible for someone who weighs as much as I do NOT to lose FAT on under 700 calories a day no matter what the scale says.

I'm not hungry but today was my first day back at work so I did want to stuff my face a few times. We had a mortality and morbidity conference my first day back. Catered, which in this case was ironic, since the pt was over 600 pounds. I had 1/4 cup unshelled pistachios (took forever to chew to mush) and a bottle of diet snapple but there was Danish..poppyseed AND cheese....

Home now and back to for ing myself to suck down my current favorite th I g... 8oz of 1% milk with a scoop of unflavored Protein powder.

So... the huge hunger I felt probably conditioning. I don't like not getting what I want the second I want it...OH DEAR! That might be why I am fat.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
