Hello everyone! Tomorrow will be 3 weeks post op. I'm following my diet as instructed. I also started exercising. Seems I've hit a stall? Could this happen so soon? By no means am I complaining, I've never lost weight this fast in my life. Just seems that my clothes are falling off and I can see the weight loss. Just wondering why I'm not seeing the scale move. I've been stuck at this weight for almost a week. Thanks !

3 weeks out is very common. Be patient. Your body is readjusting itself. The scale will start moving again soon. :D

I'm right there with you! Tomorrow will start week 3 and I've been the same weight all of week 2. Yet, I feel like I've lost inches. I understand this is expected during this time, so I'll just keep on doing what I'm supposed to. You're not alone! :)

I stalled at 3weeks also. I think a lot of people do. It's your body's way of trying to hang on. But eventually it will let go of the weight. Don't stress just keep moving forwards

Same thing happened to me. Now I'm one month tomorrow and started losing again this weekend. I think our bodies hang on and I'm eating about 400 calories a day so it will keep moving off. It's hard to be patient. My SW was 205 now I'm 183

I stalled week 3 too. Weight started coming off again last weekend. And I'm 4 weeks post op today!! 34lbs gone from pre op to now. I've lost almost 6lb a week. Amazing. Never lost this much weight without starving myself. Happy me!

I stalled at 3 1/2 weeks with a measly 12 pound loss and the scale has not moved in over a month!! I'm doing everything I'm supposed to..protein..water..etc :-( the only thing keeping me sane is I AM losing inches..I am swimming in some of my tops :-) hang in there..keep reading positive posts!

I'm stalled at three weeks also. It seems pretty standard with everyone so far. So long as we keep to our plans I'm positive we will all be moving along again. Hell, I've never lost 22 lbs so quick in my life so I'll be patient...... Kinda

      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!
