I've been holding at the same weight for over a month. Talked to my nut and she said my pouch should be restricting me and it may not be... What?!?? Am I easy here? Yes i go per my calories about 1000 a day. I do 2 Protein Shakes a day and a meal. I don't do sugar etc. so why a stall? She said I still should be losing up to 12 Months post op and I'm only 6.. And i should be on solider foods... What am I doing wrong?

Maybe u need to switch it up. Start eating meat Protein, Beans, fruits and veggies all day. Throw in some exercise or switch up what your doing.

I agree with Elle.

I've read from other members that the pouch can get very comfortable with only one type of diet regularly and that's when you bump into stalls.

Maybe as Elle suggested, mix it up a bit and do not eat the same foods every day. Kind of take your pouch by surprise and give it something new to work on.

I highly doubt your pouch is malfunctioning. From what I read, that happens when something medically wrong is going on.

      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.

      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!
