What Happened?



Recommended Posts

My journey began 9/12/11. I do not regret it at all, one of the bed decisions I've ever made. I started at 272 and I am STUCK at 212-214. I'm extremely proud of the weight loss. I've worked hard but now every thing I try to lose that last 10-15 lbs are impossible. I do cardio, weights, andand change my calorie intake. has anyone found a way to solve this please help. thanjs

Do you track your food?

Track every bite. I like myfitness pal but there are many sites out there to use.

How many calories a day are you getting to the amount of exercise you do?

If it's too little, you won't lose. Too high and you'll gain. It takes "tweaking" a bit.

You say you exercise, but how much cardio do you do?

My health psychologist educated my support group with this: it takes 60-90 minutes of cardio exercise a day to lose and maintain. Once I did this, the weight came off.

How much Water do you get?

Water flushes you out and I swear makes the fat come off. I hate water but I know I need it, so I enjoy my crystal light additives in it.

Best of luck to you! xx

I like what 4ALongerLife said.

There is an answer. You will find it. We will help if we can.

There's more than one way to skinny a cat! :D

I call my wife DebbieDeb among an endless number of other nicknames, all terms of endearment. :wub:

      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.

        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!
