Takes a few fills to finally kick in and maintain food intake without getting hungry. Be patient and keep up your good work of eating better and exercising.

you should be losing 2 lbs a week not days. The body can hold up to 5-7 lbs of Water weight. I weight myself every morning at 6 am and mark it on the calardar so I can see how it goes for me . it all comes out in the end I do the happy dance the second I see a lower number and keep that in my head. Good luck and keep up the good work

Weight loss can be slower in the beging because you are healing. The band does not make you lose weight. Its calories in verses calories burned. Make sure you are measuring and tracking everything you eat. Make sure you are drinking enough Water because that definetly plays a part in keeping you satisfied. Make good food choices. High Protein solids. Best of luck!!

50 lbs is great! Is that since surgery or before? Your body can go through adjustment periods and plateaus. You may need another fill or two before feeling satisfied longer between meals. The important thing is to eat your Protein first and make sure you are getting plenty of it. Hang in there, more weight loss will come!

      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'. ???

        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!
