2 weeks post op. Start at 341, surgery at 323 and currently at 310. Lost a ton of weight pre op and week 1 but since I went from liquids to soft solids, I have stalled or gain .2-.4 a day. I'm getting ~500 cals which the nutritionist recommends for this phase. Not cheating at all or eating between meals. Also nothing is high sodium in my diet.

Anyone else experience this? When did the stall break and did you do anything special? Just frustrating to work so hard and see no progress right out of the gate.

I am 4 weeks post OP on this Monday. I have lost 10-12lbs being some days I gain a lb or2 !! I lost that in the first 2 weeks but that's it!!

I like you am doing all the correct things! It's very frustrating!

I took my scale and dug a big hole and buried that son of a gun!!

I'm not going to weigh unless I'm at the Doc office! Just do all the right things. Everyone says it will eventually balance out and work!

Keeping the faith????

Same here. 3 weeks post op and scale is only fluctuating between.2-.4 give or take. I am following all of my docs orders too. I keep telling myself to be patient. Everyone says this happens and it's just part of the process. Hang in there!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
