Had RNY revision 8/23 and went from 408lbs to 344 in 2 weeks. Problem is, have not lost any since then. Getting discouraged. Tired of people asking how much you lost, and answering "nothin". What am I doing wrong?

Nothing. You are at the stall phase. If you recall the first time around, your body went through it. That's quite a bit of weight at one time and your body has to adjust. Keep following your doctor's orders. That is HUGE!!!!!! You have lost 63 pounds in two weeks and you're discouraged?????[emoji44][emoji848] Don't you think you should be celebrating the victory?????[emoji323][emoji322] Congratulations and keep going. You can do this. [emoji846][emoji1474]

How often do you weigh? Many people weigh daily and get discouraged when they don't see the scale moving. I would weigh weekly instead.

Those plateaus are so frustrating!!

hey dude

people at a heavier starting weight tend to loose a lot of weight at the beginning

of their journey, will slow down a little as time passes, but will do great

it's mind boggling to me that you or anyone can loose 64 lbs in 2 weeks

not sure about that - but..... ok, that's great!!!

continued good luck, health and happiness☺️

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
