I hit my one year next month and I am planning to do a sleeve to bypass revision because the sleeve did not work as well for my weightloss. I also had a significant loss and gain back before that the surgeon thinks has hindered my relose and that the sleeve didn't help me enough. What makes it so frustrating is I've been doing everything by the book and really exercising and have a physical job. :/

I am not even a year out and have only been able to lose 1-2lbs a month for the last 8 months. However in lost and regaid120lbs and the doctors believe the sleeve didn't do enough and are suggesting I go in for a revision to the full gastric once I hit my year mark, which I plan to do seeing as I have a minimum of 67lbs to lose..

When I was at my week 8, I hit a stall for three weeks.

I hit a stall week 2 & 3, and 7, which was after Christmas. It is natural.

Amazing! You look fantastic!

I had mine right at 10 weeks ago today, and I constantly have that fear. I've seen friends who were successful at it and some who weren't. I just try to keep a clear mind about it. I lost 120lbs on my own years ago (in 2011) but gained it all but 5lbs back. It taught me a lesson!!

I'm 9 weeks and can tolerate anything. I try to stay at 800 calories and at least 65g of protein.

Try Prilosec or Pepcid. I was put on one after my endoscopy.

The first week or so yes, but since then it's a steady drop. I'm about 80/20 with my food and exercising a few days. Seems with more exercise I get a gain though.

I'm having this problem myself lately and going to do the 5 day pouch test to try and get myself back straight!

I went back after about ten days, and I was okay. I have a job where I stand all day too.

I'm two months out and my nutritionist told me at my 3 week appointment that I need to get around 800 calories a day. I average between 45-80g of protein a day as well. I'm at the point where I am able to tolerate most foods.

The same thing happened to me. After one week I stalled for two, then it broke. I also got my TOM two days after surgery.

My second and third week of surgery I was in a stall but two weeks to the day, it broke (Thanksgiving Day). I was paranoid about it until I found out it was normal for it to happen.

Tomorrow makes 2 weeks I've stalled since surgery on Nov 6! Very frustrating.

I've been on mine for two weeks, and my surgery was Nov 6! You aren't alone!!

I had my surgery Nov 6, which tomorrow makes 3 weeks...and have been stalled for then past two weeks! So irritating! I know my BF % has gone down a lot because I measure with an Omron machine weekly. But still...! I go see my surgeon next week and hopefully will be past this!

After a few days of getting home.

Sometimes I don't, sometimes I do. I realize sometimes that I get bored, and remember I was usually eating or sleeping before my sleeve. I don't miss feeling like I have to eat all the time and my cravings are minimal. I'm also very happy when I eat 5 bites and lose my appetite.

Y'all look fantastic!!

Good plan on the store doing it. I'm 5 days post op, and if I try to do too much.. I pay for it. Plus, the internal stitch in my right side hasn't released yet, so I'm still in serious pain.

I've been drinking the Diet Cranberry Juice. Ever since surgery I've craved it.

Good luck!!

Great information! I'm still on liquids for another week or two.

Had my surgery on the 6th, wasn't too difficult except the pain after. I had severe chest pain (gas and where they went in to move around the liver and diaphragm) and on the right side (said was where they pulled out the stomach excess). It's a lot better today, 3 days post op. But if I turn the wrong way, it puts me almost to my knees. The only chest pain I'm having now is still a few spasms and soreness. But I'm getting more fluids each day.
