  8. K guys maybe I just need to vent but I am a gastric sleeve complication to bypass patient. This coming Sunday will be a month from the bypass. I have dropped MAYBE two pounds. I am so angry and confused. I Put myself through this hell and I have lost about 92 pounds since November with the sleeve but due to serious complications basically able to eat or drink anything in starvation to loosing nothing. Help! Suggestions. Just now really getting energy back to maybe exercise. Went to work four days after surgery. Suggestions? I called doc he said maybe body is adjusting or maybe ur at the weight u will be at. Well heck if I haven't had wanted to lose more weight I wouldn't have had the bypass. Loosing my mind and not weight!!
