I'll weigh in tomorrow, but on TUESDAY, right before surgery, I lost 6.4 lbs on the pre-surgery diet!

So SW for surgery = 264.8 lbs.

I don't want to get too excited yet, but I THINK.....after FIVE weeks of nothingness...I may be down a few pounds. I'm holding my breath the next couple days to see if it's real! I really scaled back on my intake and logging, and I think it's doing something...

Yay, I broke my stall and lost 4.6lbs this week. I'm super excited!!!! I hope I am off my stinkin' stall for a while.

1 month, 4 days post op...

PSW: 243.6 (Pre-surgery weight)

SW: 231.6 (Surgery weight)

LWWI: 216.6 (Last week's weigh-in)

CW: 212.0 (Current Weight)

Total loss: 31.6 (19.4 since surgery)

I am not sure what people consider their starting weight so I called it surgery weight. Are people counting from the date of surgery or from the start if their pre-op diet? I don't want to mislead newbies into thinking I lost 31.6 lbs in 4 weeks. I hope I did this right.

You're right, I can see where that might mix some people up so instead of me calculating my highest weight, I readjusted my ticker with my start weight being at the beginning of the preop diet. I think most people are starting from preop diet weight.

Peacequeen, good to know. What do you mean your ticker?

I start from my pre op diet weight, because if I did not have the surgery scheduled, I would not have lost that 15 pounds beforehand, so I count it as "surgery" loss.

      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!
