I have lost twenty-four pounds since having surgery on April 12th. I have hit a stall. (I am not discouraged. I will succeed with my weight loss. :) This is me cheering myself on! I need this some times!)

I had this surgery to be healthier for myself and my family. I will continue to eat healthy and keep my journals.

I plan on mixing my diet up this week and seeing if that helps. (I am having a hard time eating Breakfast due to time constraints at work. I have been drinking a Protein Shake and having coffee. What do you eat?)

Are any of you at a stall?

I was sleeved on 4/27. Friday is my 7 week anniversary. As of today I have lost 39 pounds since surgery. It would be amazing if I reached an even 40 by friday, but I won't hold my breath!

I am down 52lbs since my surgery April 4th, I find that removing all carbs and sugar from diet seems to produce the best results. Whenever I eat bread, rice,potatoes I tend to loose slower, usually to get over a stall I jump on a Liquid Protein diet for a day and it kick starts me right back up.

Excersing has definitely play a crucial part in my weight loss so be sure to get in the gym soon to help you achieve your goal.

Things to avoid all together

Alcoholic beverages, sugars as they cause huge eating binges atleast for me.

my breakfast when I have time is egg whites and a slice of deli ham mixed together. If not I do a coffee and Protein Shake same as you.

good luck

Hi J@Alabama, how long is your stall?

I had a gain and a stall at around 5 - 6 weeks, when I started eating solid foods, because all I could keep down was starchy foods like potato and banana. So I ate plenty of those, and I stalled ofcourse. When I brought my carbs under 50g, I started losing more steady again. If I don't see any loss in 3-4 days, I go a day fasting, or drink a Water pill and scale keeps moving.

I am nine weeks out and have been stalled for a little over a week. However the scales have moved today.

I am not overeating on the carb side. I actually think I wasn’t getting enough calories.

Thanks for all the input everyone!

      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!
