2 weeks post op sleeve



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and I'm down 13lbs. Ive been the same weight for days. Could I be hitting a plateau now? Or is my body just getting used to the lower calories?

Johnni,

Im in the same boat.. had surgery on the 4th.. lost about 12 lbs quick but not coming off each day.. just a stall. I will follow your pins and see what you find out.

take care

Sounds like a stall. I had one about 2-3 weeks in. Hang in there! It'll start moving.

Yep! I stalled 1 week in! No change for 2 weeks then I dropped 4 lbs over night! Focus on healing, not on loss! Both of my sisters stalled at the same point, but 1 has lost 70 lbs and 1 has lost 150 lbs. I have only been sleeved for a little over 3 weeks, but I'll let you know!! If you are eating what your dr says to eat and drinking Water, then you should be good! Keep the faith!!

keep the faith and you have to remember some of that weight that you lost also came from the part of the stomach he removed from your body and also realize you'll lose more weight once your doctor gives you the OK to workout that's when the weight will began to really drop and remember you'll still fresh so focus on healing right not NOT pounds dropping

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
