From being the "professional" dieter that I am *wink wink* - I would suggest journal everything. Also, if you are working out a lot, you may need to increase your calorie intake. Give it one more month. If nothing then, contact your NUT. Then you can take your journal in and they can see exactly what you are doing and make changes needed.

Do you know your daily caloric intake?

I've read anything from 200-300 up to 800 from those still in the loss stages.

Hmmm.....have you checked your heart rate during exercise to see if you are in your "target" range?

Try dropping your calories to 500 a couple times a week; it should shock your system back into burning fat. Your body will get used to what you are doing and needs a wake-up. Good luck!

      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!
