Feeling bummed...3 weeks stall...LOST!



Recommended Posts

So tomorrow will mark 6 weeks post op. The first 3 weeks I was able to lose 34lbs but I have stalled for the last 3. My NUT keeps telling me it happens but I am getting really concerned. scale has only gone down 1lb! Yikes! Am working out as of last week and just praying for things to shake up cause it's depressing...

NOt sure what your starting weight is but I pretty much at 3 week stall also...I up my Water and then I lost about 5lbs but nothing more since then I have only lost about 21lbs and still have 123 more to lose...I cry and then I cheat...DON'T JUDGE ME! PLEASE

@@lynn2win I started at 292. Sorry to hear you are in the same place. I haven't cheated cause there are still a few things I can't tolerate and trust I can't judge you :-) Let's just stay positive and struggle on. Did you talk to your NUT too?

34 lbs in 3 weeks?!?! Of course your body is going to stall. That is a crazy amount to lose even with the surgery! Your body is probably in shock. Don't worry, stick with the plan and it will start coming off again in no time. Just to compare...I started surgery day at 313 (lost 34 lbs before that) and in my first three weeks I lost 9 lbs. I never did have a stall maybe because I lose slower. I'm almost 13 wks out and have lost 43 since surgery.

Thanks for the encouragement @@SleevelessinSeattle :-) I'll definitely keep with the plan no matter what the scale says.

      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!
