What is going on



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on 10/17. Lost 9kg the first two weeks and that was that. Stalled up till now. I eat the recommended amounts, try to take in Water (1.5 litres) and Vitamins. Nothing is happening.

I know people say not to be bothered, but I can't help it. Its 3 weeks in a stall. Fact is I'm eating less, so what's going on. Am becoming demotivated.

Wht can I do?

Patience. Sounds like everyone has this stall. Mine lasted about 2 weeks, then I resumed losing weight at a steady rate and I'm melting away. Try NOT to weigh yourself every day.

I walked a bit. Starting up again tomorrow. Hopefully will improve. I did notice something yesterday. I drank half a litre more of Water and the scale moved a bit. So might be Water retention which is also contributing. Onwards and downwards...scale-wise ????

I've had a couple of one week stall periods. I'm on my third now. Are you food journaling? I find that helps, just a checkpoint to see if anything is different. Funny enough my last stall broke the day after I upped my calories. I was not great about getting all my Snacks in this past weekend, so I'm making sure I'm getting enough calories today. It will break. I'm willing to bet that you have lost some inches while you've been on your stall.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
