Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

I am three years out of my lap band surgery and just crossed my 100 pound weight loss figure. So happy with that. All the hard work has well been work it. Here is my question regarding weightloss.

Does anyone experience periods of time where no matter what you do, no weight loss occurs? I can go months at a time eating right, working out and nothing changes with the numbers. Then, all of a suddent I am down three or five pounds in one week. Anybody out there have that same experience?

I am very curious to see if anyone understands why this might happen.

I was 5 months with no weight loss then 7lbs in three days. Sometimes if you eat too much Protein it will cause no weight loss or weight gain. I think our bodies are just adjusting to all the things we never did so they want to be rebels at times and say no. However I think Im back on track with losing again. Hope I dont get stuck again for a long time.

Yup, you have described my life. Lose 3 pounds one week then go four without anything. I have grown used to it and I will get to my goal soon but I have not attached a time line for that. It will happen when it happens.

KUDOS for losing 100 pounds. You go girl!!

Thank you. I eat Protein at every meal and sometimes just Protein. I will try adding a little more carbs and grains to my daily intake and see if i notice a faster drop in weight. Thanks for the encouraging words.

      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!
