At almost 6 months out I average 900 to 1000 calories daily.....sometimes more than that sometimes less.

I'm exactly 5 weeks post-op today. (It feels like I'm further along...I could've sworn today was week 6 or 7.) I average 450 calories. My goal is to get up to 800 very soon.

At 4 months out, I average between 800 and 1,000. Sometimes less than 800, and almost never over 1,000.

four months out 800-1050 calories a day. I like to eat in a range because some days I'm just hungrier than others... If I've done a LOT of exercise for the day (like if I burn 1500 extra calories according to my bodymedia fit) I might go as high as 1200 but only if I'm feeling like I need it.. When I get down to 200 I'll increase my calories to create a more moderate deficit and I'll eat back my exercise calories.

4.5 months out and average 1000 a day. Have been in a stall for a while. May try to drop down to 700 for a few days to see if that helps.

      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!
