So today will be my 4 week mark and I've lost 29.6 lbs so far. The first 2 weeks I lost almost 15 lbs each. These past 2 weeks I haven't lost any. Is this normal??? I'm starting to get discouraged. :(

Wow! Sounds like you're doing great! It is normal. Keep eating well and the weight loss will continue. .

Wow 30 in a month is awesome! Yes it's totally normal, your body needs to catch up! The 3-4 week stall is incredibly normal. If week pick up again soon.

@@lizzyloo same thing happened to me. I was really upset about it. But it kicks into high gear. You're doing well!

My bariatric team prepared me to expect that, but it's still aggravating when it happens. This is as normal as normal gets, and you are doing great. Oh, BTW, it won't be your last stall, so just know that if you drink Water until your eyeballs float, eat your Proteins first (and plenty of them), and pretend that carbs cost ten dollars cash up front (each!), you will do just fine. I wish you good luck and good health.

      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!
