As you begin to eat dense protien it will be harder to eat more. When I eat sliders I never feel it so I stay away from it a much as I can. When I eat fish and chicken I feel restriction really quick. Make sure u counting your chews and drink 30 mins before anf after. That also helps.

I have lost inches and pounds but dont see it. I still me as the same. I have a condition I coined fat°eye°itis.

Been there. my doc told me it would happen with only being able to go every 3~4 days and she is correct. I take a phillips stool softner EVERYDAY, and I have date EVERY wednesday and saturday with hot peepermint tea and Miralax nite cap before bed then im ready in the morning. Try some of this and drink drink drink your Water. That helps alot.

[quote name="Lisa ]And BTW...your stats are very similar to mine. I'm almost 5'9" and I started at 339' date=' had surgery at 312 and I was at about the 50 pound mark at 6 months...which I was THRILLED with!! I've lost about 90 since surgery and I'm almost 17 months out.

I haven't lost ANYTHING since the one year mark and it's not because my sleeve doesn't work....it's because I relaxed and I'm not working it!!! Am I frustrated?...Yes!!! But I am still absolutely, 100% happy with my decision to have the sleeve....even if I NEVER lose another pound I am happier with my life becasue I feel like the 115 pounds I've lost (and have kept off BTW) has enabled me to be the person I always knew I was on the inside!!

I have 45 pounds more to lose and it doesn't matter if it takes me another 2 years to get it off....it's coming off!! So be patient with yourself. LIVE in the process of this amazing journey!! It's a much better way to live than to feel frustrated about a number on a scale....which doesn't really tell you anything!!!!

Thank u so much!!!!!

GRATEFUL N THANKFUL

[quote name="Lisa ]"Only" 50 lbs down?....You are doing amazing!!! Don't compare your results to ANYONE else!! You've lost 81 pounds!! Think about that for a minute....81 pounds!!! And the great thing is that you are going to keep it off!!!

Celebrate your accomplishment...don't diminish it!!!

Keep rockin' your sleeve and you will get there!! And remember' date=' you didn't put it all on in 6 months. You WILL have stalls and plateaus and then you'll have periods where you are losing again.

SLOW AND STEADY wins the race!!!![/quote']

I am smiling reading n re~reading ur post thanks. Just so frustrating.

GRATEFUL N THANKFUL

Well you can still have RNY.

Insurance will not approve until 2yrs post op. So not an option as of now.

GRATEFUL N THANKFUL

Thinking I should have had the rny now instead of vsg. 6 months out only 50lbs down since day of surgery.

I'm not aware of Vitamins aiding weight loss' date=' which means that they also should have no effect on a stall; however, there is a whole section in this booklet on nutrition after VSG that explains why Vitamins (& minerals) are so important for us post-op.

Thanks icon. I love the info. Has some different information than my booklet has. I was wondering about this because I have seen other post that have stated make sure to take supplements and of coarse Water to help with stalls.
