6 weeks post op. Tolerating things very well. I am on solid foods as I can handle. Still a few things I haven't tried but most part I feel great after eating. I am measuring I an getting in my protien and Water 95% of the time.

Rny was Nov 7th. But since my pre op diet I have only lost 43 lbs. I am feeling like this us so minimal. They say don't compare but how hard is it when I see people's weight just shed. I walk everyday. hard to keep positive when it just never feels like enough. Maybe it's all brain games for me or maybe I am too excited to start noticing myself but I still feel like the 300 +lbs girl. I question if I'm not eating the right things even though it's all mostly protien. Don't get me wrong I am proud to say I am 40 lbs lighter but I just don't feel it's enough.

Just needed a little vent this is my safe zone ;) I love you guys here.

40 pounds in 6 weeks??? That's awesome. Keep up the good work. Stay positive. If you don't feel the scale is moving, you might just be in a stall. It'll pass.

Ditto AC3!!! That's incredible! It does seem that the weight loss rate varies from person to person. I can tell you not to compare your journey to others but I'm sure at times I'll be doing the same. As much as possible Celebrate your success thus far! I personally think you're doing great! Your success is motivating people like me who are at the 5 lb loss mark! Keep it up and stay positive. You've got this!

This is Day 6 and I have gained 15 pounds. My blood pressure went dangerously low. They helped combat that with extra fluids. I know in my mind this will change, but it's frustrating. Hoping it goes down some by the time I see my surgeon in 18 days.

Your progress is wonderful. Just stick with your plan, and be proud of any loss you have. You're doing gread!

      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!
