Sounds like you're doing everything right. My weight loss would be exactly the same as you if I hadn't had a week of reflux when I couldn't eat at all. Also my NUT says if you lose too fast you run the risk of losing muscle mass, which makes it easier to put back on. So well done!

Yea that makes sense, thanks :) I have been able to do some lifting at the gym so maybe it is the muscle. I'm trying to avoid loose skin any way I can

Hi all, Just checking in to say how I am doing and that is to say not that well. I actually had gained back 10 pounds in the last month and a half. Then today I weighed myself and discovered that I had again lost that 10 pounds so now I am back at 271 pounds and not to happy about it. but I also look at it this way at least I am back to the weight I was back on May 30th.

That's awesome guys! Good job! My weight loss has been kind of slow :/ this morning I was at 236. Down 32 lbs. I exercise 3 days a week. Get about 900 calories a day. Hope I'm doing everything right :(

I was told when I was eating at that level I wasnt eating enough and my body would go into conservation mode. Check with your NUT to see if thats the case for you. If not, then slow and steady does win the race!! Congrats all..

OK 5/19ers, anyone up for a new challenge? I want to run a 5k race nd I'ld like all of you to join me.. I'm going to use the C25k app and training program starting in august and should be ready to go by 8 weeks. We all need a challenge, we are facing the mental challenge and emotional challenge, now lets take on the physical..

Seems crazy to me to suggest it, but there you go. There is a rock N Roll 5k being held in Las Vegas in early november and by that time we could all be ready to run it and actually complete it.

Its a whole weekend of nutrition info and workout gear and even some sessions as I understand it. PLus, Its Vegas!!.. That will put us all 6 mo. post op, a milestone by my reckoning and a reason to Celebrate.< /p>

Anyone interested in participating? Even better, is anyone living in vegas who might want to put up with all of us? Regardless, rooms are cheap and we certainly wont be spending the big money on the buffets!!

Anyone interested??

Sadly I have s heel injury so no running for me at present. Otherwise I would have happily taken this up! Good luck and keep us posted!

On a separate note I am on such a major stall it's driving me crazy. No weight lost for 10 days now. How the heck can this be?! I eat like a bird????

      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!
