Out of frustration I put mine away this morning' date=' but I know ill take it back out! Maybe I need someone to hide it from me also, then id probably drive myself crazy looking for it![/quote']

I know we all talked about the stalls before but I think we all hit the 3-4 week stall together. I haven't lost at all this week. We just have to know that it will start moving again and it's up to out bodies to decide when. We just have to keep doing as we are told and follow the plan. The rest will fall into place. I think hiding the scale is the best idea yet! Lets continue with the before and after pics and measurements and not look at the scale until Monday. Who's with me? Would anyone like to share some pics? That's always a spirit lifter :)

I like your idea, but I have not yet started to measure myself. Will do so tonight.

You'll find that to be the biggest shock when you aren't losing lbs sometimes it's inches.

15 day stall here. Feeling depressed and to top it off, my house was burglarized today. :-( My 100 lb dogs are so sweet no good for keeping the house safe. Poor things are traumatized. I've got a headache. I guess you'd call this a Bad day.

If you have a stall you may try upping your calories a little and definitely make sure you are getting in your Protein. Our bodies are shocked into starvation mode and try to hold on to everything.

So the other day we had a company birthday party for two coworkers at Olive Garden. Hummm what to order. . Im on soft moist Proteins. So after much deliberation, I ordered the meatball sandwich with out the bread. It came on this cute long thin plate with 4 meatballs and sauce and cheese on top. It was delicious. (the 5 little bites that I had. ) I ate 3/4 of one meatball and I was done.

took the rest home.

Still stalled!!! Day 8. Going insane (even though I know I need to ride it out and keep going).

Mine finally broke. I ramped up my Protein to about 90 gms per day and that worked. Go figure!

Okay, I have been in a stall for about a week and then the last two days, I have GAINED two pounds! WHAT??? The only thing different I have done was have some Chinese food (just house chicken and cashew chicken - no veggies). And it was such small portions, I can't imagine that the sodium would have that much impact. I am only getting about 40 - 50 oz of Water a day... but I am really working on that trying to get up to at least 64 oz of water. So, today, I am back to basics... scrambled egg, ham and an ounce of cheese for Breakfast. A Protein Shake for snack. Deli turkey and string cheese for lunch. Beans for dinner. Hopefully, this will get me back on track... Very frustrated that I'm not losing faster, but trusting in the process. Of course, haven't done any walking or exercise yet... exercise is a 4-letter word in my house! Have to work on that, too!

      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!
