  1. I had surgery on October 28, 2013...I weighed 226 and I now weigh 181.( April 9 ). So I have lost 45 lbs in 5 1/2 months. But it seems that I have stopped losing weight. I haven't lost anything in 3 weeks....I wear a size 16/18 but was hoping for a size 12 or even a 14,when I talked to my doctor on have the sleeve. He thought that I would lose down to a size 12 with no problem.... but I wonder if anyone has any ideas on how to get the weigh lose started again.....How long will I lose weight---6, 8 months or up to a year?????? Feeling depressed!!!!!!
  2. I had surgery on October 2013, that has been almost 6 months.....I had the gastric sleeve and I have lost approximately 45 lbs. I weighed 226 and am now at 181 and cannot seem to get below that weight.....Seems that I am losing maybe 2 lbs a month. Seems that I should lose more quickly than this and if I happen to eat the wrong item for lunch I will gain a pound.... Just checking to see how others are doing.....I am afraid that I will not reach my goal of 140 before the weigh lose stops altogether....HELP!!!!!! I can eat anything, nothing seems to bother me, but I am having constipation, that I never had before....
  3. I had gastric sleeve 4 months ago. I have lost 36 lbs. Is that good or bad...also I am now averaging 3 lbs a month for weight lost. Doesn't seem like that is enough. we are iced in and I cannot get out and walk or exercise like I should...
  4. It has been 4 months since my surgery and I am not on any meds except heart rate pill and Vitamins. Think that might be my problem. I also had the sleeve and it seems that I am only losing about 3-4 lbs a month..How is everyone else doing with weight lost. I have lost 36 lbs in 4 months. Is that normal.
