Hi im one week out of sleeve surgery. Im down 12 pounds first week. Feeling good. Was wondering if that was about normal loss first week? Keep in mind I lost 20lbs before surgery so prolly not all Water weight. Started at 290lbs down to 258lbs. Also I was wondering when did everyone start taking there Vitamins after surgerys?

There's really no "normal". I lost 8lbs, some gain because of all the fluids, some lose more, some less. Lots of variables, so try not to compare yourself to others. Sounds to me like you're doing great! Glad you're doing well :)

I took terrible chewable Vitamins, so my surgeon gave me the okay right away. What did yours recommend?

My dr had me taking Vitamins and whole Tylenol the first day! Just broke the Tylenol in half before swallowing

I lost 9 first week, 6 the 2 nd 3rd week 6 and now only 4 this 4th week...certainly slows down fast that's for sure but it's still all adding up!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
