How many calories do you consume? If your body is not getting enough calories your body will start to store them as fat because it thinks is starving. I posted this previously but try this tool www.livestrong.com and sign up for the daily plate. It free and track everything you eat. Also with your work outs make sure you change it up. If you do the same exact work out every day your body will eventually get used to it. Always set yourself goals and try to break them as often as possible. Good luck, be patient and the weight will come off if you are doing what you are suppose to.

I didn't get my restriction until the third fill, so , you probably just need more time if you don't have the proper restriction right now. They usually give you a full month to recover, making that the end of December... and this is the middle of february... It just takes time is all. How much have you lost since surgery?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
