Wow congrats... Great job

First day of spring break, so off to the gym I go this morning. Hope everyone has a good day.

It feels so good to be UNDER 300 finally!!!!!

I can totally relate. I am 4 1/2 weeks out and can't get enough sleep. I agree with everyone else that we just aren't getting enough calories in at this stage to sustain energy. In time it will improve...I hope lol.

Look how much you've lost! Of course your energy is low. I'm at 5 weeks post-op too, have lost 51 lbs. including pre-op diet. Once I moved from liquid to soft I gained 8 and then plateaued for a week. The last few days I've been losing 1 to 2 lbs a day. Just saw my endocrinologist yesterday. She said hang in there, to expect low energy when getting 700-800 calories a day. Once off soft, and off exercise restriction I hope to have more energy. Everybody's body seems to be a little different with plateaus and rate of weight loss. It's certainly an adventure! Hang in there and don't get discouraged.

5 weeks out I was doing pretty good loosing the weight. Started out 263 down to 216. Seems like I hit a plateau. My only problem right now is that I'm feeling tired...even with the Vitamins. Anyone one having this issue...

I am 2 weeks and 2 days post op

I am personally just tired of food period, i don't even want to eat........that could just be me though, but I do it so I c an live.........lol who would have thought

1 month post op feels good!

Sleeved 2/28 and feel great. Started pre op 2/14 and 3/8 lost total 31lbs. (19 on pre op) Saw surgeon and he was impressed with how good I feel. I truely believe it is due to: Walking daily prior to surgery- Quitting smoking 2 months prior- Not cheating on pre-op- Walking lots post up...even day 2...walking around every 15 minutes- sugar free lollipops days 1-4 for fluids. I feel back to normal, truthly better than normal. (I self paid and my insurance would not pay for complications, so that is why I was careful to do what I was told)

Woohoo!! Stall finally broke!! I have been stalled the last 2.5 weeks after surgery on 2/12. Difference this time is I didn't get discouraged and go binge. I am loving my sleeve!

My 1st post op appt. today went great. I'm down 30 lbs. from my first weigh-in. I got the green light to start with the trainer on Monday...I'm super excited. I've decided to weigh myself once a month because I don't want to get discouraged to about stalling.

Oh my goodness the first day after surgery I was regretting my decision to have the gastric. Thank God I did I feel a lot better now just a lot of discomfort still

Congrats! Nice job.

Good for you, congratulations.

I put my scale away. Weekly is better, I don't want to become obsessed with that darn scale.
