IS THIS HAPPENING WITH YOUR WEIGHT LOSS?



Recommended Posts

It's funny how some of my weight loss happens. One day I can weigh say 210 and the next day I can weigh 208, same thing happened when the scale said 206 it happened in one day's time. Is this possible to lose 2 pounds in a days time? Not that I am complaining at all, just was wondering if this was happening to anyone else? I have a habit of trying to weigh myself everyday or every other day. I am trying to go back to weighing weekly. Is this happening to you???

It happens. I try to weigh myself at the same time of day, usually first thing in the morning. I've weighed myself more than once in a day and it can fluctuate throughout the day.

that's when I weigh myself too, in the morning. otherwise I know it would fluctuate.

I have experienced the same thing. I found that the weight loss that quickly is more an indication of hydration levels and if I've been dealing with Constipation. I can easily lose 2 pounds if I've not had good bowel movements for 3 days! (sorry if that is too much information!)

Likewise the "real" weight loss seems to come in waves for me. I will be at a constant weight for 3 or 4 days and then suddenly lose 1 or 1.5 pounds. It is just so unpredictable!

      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!
