3 months Post Up HELP!!!



Recommended Posts

I am feeling great I am down 95 lbs since I started my weight loss journey and 56 lbs down since I got sleeved.

I am still in my third month and I have only lost 5 pounds!!!! The first two months was great because I lost over 20 pounds each month.

I am pretty sure it has to do with what I eat. It is sooooo hard for me to eat. I am trying to get to 80 g of Protein each day and keep my carb intake as low as 20g a day. When I do eat, I get full for hours and thought of Water makes me want to puke so it is hard to drink water as well. I need some advise ..

Is 56 pounds in 2 and half months ok? or am I just crazy?

Your weight loss is excellent. There's no problem here. You have to be realistic; you won't lose 20 lbs every month until you hit goal. Some months will be better than others.

You're doing fine with weight loss, but if you aren't hitting your Water goals regularly, you're going to definitely stall out. You need lots of water to burn fat and to get it out of your system. If you get yourself up to 80-100oz a day, you'll see a big difference. If you can't stand water for some reason, add some lemon and/or lime to the water with a little salt (sea salt or Himalayan Pink, not ionized, processed table salt) and some stevia for flavor. In cruch, use some crystal light--it's processed chemical crap, but it won't trigger an insulin response in most cases so from a purely weight loss perspective it's generally ok (not from an overall health perspective though).

You're fine. I had surgery the same day as you and have lost around 48 lbs since surgery. I find it helps me to calculate my average weekly loss. I'm still losing nearly 4lbs/week average. That makes me feel better about the week I only lost 1.5.

      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!
