Hello everyone..So I was sleeved on 4/20/12 and have run into some stalls already..But what I have noticed was that I was not working out enough. I was only walking about 30 mins a day and at a rather slow pace but fast for me (so I thought lol). I decided to walk on my treadmill this weekend and boy did that make a real difference.I walked at 2.6 for 1 hour which burns about 300 calories more if you weight more. And today I lost 3 lbs over the weekend. I was so excited.Today I walked the same. Im not getting on the scale til next week monday and see what type of weight loss I have had. Anyone run into the same thing here. Also if someone can tell me about how many calories I should eat per day right now it is less than 600. It that too much or too little ?

Hello all.. I wanted to ask those of you a question. I had my vsg on 4/20/12 since then I have lost 7-8 lbs .I say 7-8 because I gained a lbs since last week.. I am truely wondering what I am doing wrong. I walk about 30 mins a day. I really cant eat anything much. I usually have alot of protein meats/drinks and cheese. I drink alot of water a day..Um maybe about 60oz a day. I have seen some people lose like 30 lbs since surgery what could I be doing wrong? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks so much everyone for all the info. Just to answer a few of the questions you all had. My aunt Flo came to visit 2 week after my surgery so that wasnt the reason for the stall. I did up my excerise this weekend to get in more cardo. I also purchased another scale at Walmart only 24.99 The Doctors Scale its called and please to anounce I have lost 2 lbs this weekend . I feel so much better. I also started to use Fitness Pal to track my calories so yesterday I ate 575 calories. I really appreciate all the support from everyone thanks again.

I agree ..having people to talk to that feel like u do really helps

I am refussing to tell my family . Why? just because.. Funny thing is my mom had vsg last year I havent even told her.. I just feel like its my business and mine alone .. now my hubby ofcourse knows, his mom, and our kids.. My husbands friend knew and he went and told like 5 of there friends, then they came to my husband like wow why is your wife getting that done she's not even fat like that.. See thats what I dont wanna hear

I wouldnt eat it either I am a little over 3 weeks out.

congrats keep up the good work .. I wish I could lose 7 lbs ..Im a staller

I have about 74lbs to lose. I make a bowel maybe everyother day. I will weigh again tomorrow and see. I guess maybe I do need more water.. I have had my current scale for 5 years it was pretty high tech and spend more that 100 on it. Maybe I should replace it quick.
