I broke my scale....



Recommended Posts

I have had this bathroom scale for the past year and it has watched me go from high 200s to 320 and now that i have lost 14lbs, i stepped on it this morning and i heard something crack and now it says i weight 272 no matter what i do.. That is about 30lbs under what i weight atm so its a nice scale, but not accurate.

Just kind of ironic i break my scale the week after i have surgery to actually do something to make my weight go DOWN instead of up :)

i understand all of you completely i had my surgery 12-12-07 so a week after my surgery i went and bought a scale. so i was wieghing myself weekly and i was dropping weight like nothing i was 2 1/2 weeks in and i was down 44 pounds then i weighed myself last week and i was down 55 pounds i was like woooooohooooooooooooo

then i weighed myself again it it showed me at 190 and i was like yea that aint right. evil thing

so i went to doctors it gave me the accurate weight at 24 pound weight loss and i was disappointed i thought i had at lease lost more. and dr was like what do ya want 24 pounds in 3 1/2 weeks is excellent. then i went to weight myself again and i was down another 8 pounds wooooooooohoooooooooooooo im so excited now getting back on track. the evil scale was thrown outta the house now i need to find a good accurate scale. lol:whoo:

      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.

      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!
