Almost 9 weeks out I know your not suppose to compare to others but I feel like I'm struggling to get the numbers on the scale to move like I see for people at this point I work out 4 days at least a week, just frustrated any words of wisdom? I've lost app 30 lbs so far and the last two weeks I loose and gain the same lb.

Don't worry, weight loss can stall at times. Just make sure you're getting your required Protein and Water.< /p>

Im sure you have been told this before, muscle weighs more than fat. Also, take your measurements now if you haven't done so already. I found when I wasn't losing pounds, I was losing inches. Don't be tied to the scale. I weigh now about every 2 wks or so. Don't let it discourage you. You will hit stalls. Did that in the beginning and a lot of my Facebook friends did too. Some as long as 3 weeks plus. Everyone is different. Get your Protein, Water and Vitamins in and enjoy the ride. You will get there, one step at a time.

Thanks guys I have went through my food logs and sadly my Protein has been under my requirements as my Water. I always worried about being dehydrated but my( and sorry if TMI) urine is not dark or odorous could I still be dehydrated? And if so will that affect my weight loss.

When my granddaughter became dehydrated, she ended up in the hospital for iv fluids. So be very careful. You really need to follow your Drs guidelines.

      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.

        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!
