Hi Sleevers, I was sleeved on 9/7/2012 nearly 4 months ago and I've been very successful, I've lost 52 pounds. But two days ago I weighed myself and I gained 3 pounds -_____- and I'm eating right. I don't know what could be the problem. please help!

you'll be fine, but remember that u got surgery to better yourself and not to cheat. and you just got surgery so make sure u follow procedures to the dot. otherwise you'll be seeing the hospital room!

it will get better! I promise. u have to listen to ur body and not ur head. your head is still stuck on the "fatty foods".

my amigo, its 2012, if you want some boootay you are gonna have to at least trim! haha goodluck!

you are most likely dehydrated. this has happened to me before!

UPDATE: Late time I posted, I was 185 pounds. and I weighed in today at 180 :-D aaaaaaahhhhhh!!!! only 3 pounds away from XMAS goal!!

with anorexia nervosa individuals only eat once or twice a day and I mean 50-200 calories per day. and with the vsg, you'll eat less but you'll eat more frequently and you will have to eat like "normal" people. anorexia is mental.

update: sd: 9/7/12 sdw: 232 cw: 182 I'm down 50 pounds since surgery day!!! I'm excited and very happily thrilled, BUT those darn stalls get to me -___-

update!! I'M STILL STUCK AT 185!! I'm 6 pounds away from my Xmas goal, but I don't seems to make the scale go down. :/ help!!

I was told to wait 10 weeks post-op until I was able to eat salad. But I can only eat iceberg lettuce and none other. It has to be crunchy! and on veggies, I can handle almost everything now, except broccoli and tomato's. And I tend to eat my salads almost plain (ceasar way) only because I can't eat meat yet. Thanks for your input.

Hi and thankyou for your reply!! and I guess I meant 8 oz in volume. lettece weighs nothing really but I was simply worried.

Hi Sleevers, I was sleeved on 9/7/12 a little over 3 months out. And I've been addicted to eating salads with low calorie dressings and crotuons. But Lately I've been noticing that I can eat about 8-10oz's of salad! now I don't know if that's normal or if I stretched it out, please help!! With everything else, I fill up with 3-4 bites. But with salads not. Help me Lovies!! Best wishes to everybody <3

okay, for me my ex has been dying to get me on a date and its all because of my weight loss! he knows I'm confident and I'm looking great! but what we both need to remember is that, there was once a reason for why we broke up and if they truly love us, then they need to accept us either fat or skinny! normal exercise or sleeved! best of luck!! <3

if you feel that bad, yes! go to the urgent care! but I get thick saliva ALL THE TIME!! its because you either ate too fast or you're dehydrated! make sure u drink enough water to produce "runny" normal saliva! I know how u feel. hang in there and feel better!

stalls always happen. but after they're gone, you'll see a 6+ pound drop! just be patient and stick to your daily calorie intake! water water water aswell!

congrats!! icannot wait to get there!!

Hello! sleeved on 9/7= 232 pounds today 11/15= 189 I'm down 43 pounds!! Hope you all are doing great!

yeah maybe we could of all done it without surgery, but EHHHH it took us only 3 months to lose 60+ pounds!!! hahahahaha, how long did it take her clients to lose it :-P so, bit me you nasty co-working beotch! :-D haha jk!

when I was released to go home, they told me I was able to shower normally and after 5 days the incision clear tape was going to begin to fall off, but I just took it all off. I doesn't hurt. your left incision SHOULD hurt because that's where they took out your stomach. and I'm soo sorry to hear about that Sandy storm :/ most importantly, drink your fluids then your protein. (2 weeks clear liquids then 2 weeks full liquids) stay on your guide. best wishes!!

hahahaaahah!! when this day comes, we shall be called the sleeve masters!! "I'm sexy and I know it.. girl look at this body ahhhh!" :-P

I love this post!! and umm, probably short shorts with a summery sleeve-less top!
