The scale is finally moving again



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 2/20 I was doing really well with the weight loss until about 17 days out, then bam.. the scale stopped and it really sadden me, I am following my doctors meal plan, getting my Water and Protein in. I know everyone talks about the stalls but i was hoping that it wouldn't happen. This morning I got on the scale 10 days after the stall began and I am down 1.5# hopefully this is the start of that dreaded scale to start moving regularly again....

Yes I know be patient and continue doing what I am doing :) but lets just say I am one happy camper today!!

This is great, I am so happy for you! I don't know if this is normal, but I have hit a few plateaus since I had my surgery. Right now I am dealing with one, but I have been working hard with going back to the gym, so I hope that helps it start moving again. Keep up the amazing work!!

I figured out I was not getting enough sleep! that is when your body eats up the fat for fuel! Good job!

3 week stall for me! That's when I realized the lack of sleep I was getting from all the stress I was under. Finally got a full 7 hours and the scale started to move again.

Glad it’s moving,so frustrating. Body just needs a plateau for a bit I guess. Did you check to see if you lost inches instead?

      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!
