Hi! I am just a little over a month out and I am not losing weight! I am following the dr instructions and I am staying in the same spot and even went up a pound!! I am so upset and starting to regret even having the surgery. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks!

Hi everyone! I have this burning pain on the left side in my lower stomach and I have no idea what it is from? There isn't am incision there at all. It hurts really bad when I bend especially or lay down and get up. I don't know if this is a normal thing or not? Has anyone experienced this? I was sleeved on March 3rd so it'll be 3 weeks tomorrow! Thanks everyone!

Hello! I am 2 weeks post op as of yesterday and I am not losing any weight! In fact the scale says I have gained a couple pounds. I am trying so hard. I'm worried that the sleeve isn't gonna work for me! I was put on regular Proteins on Friday by my dr. I don't think I'm eating to much as my stomach wouldn't allow it anyhow. I would love to hear from some of you sleevers! How soon after you had the sleeve did you start losing weight? Thanks everyone!!

I would love to connect and compare notes etc. feel free to pm me if you want to!

Thanks everyone for your replies to this post. I really appreciate it! It helped a lot!!

I would love to have a March sleepers group! How do we go about it?

I'm sorry you are going through this too!! It is so frusterating. If you want to talk about it, feel free to pm me.

Was sleeved on March 3rd. Is there anyone on the forum that shares the same date? I would love to hear from you and see how you are doing?

Hi! I am feeling so frusterated this morning! I am almost 2 weeks post op. Tomorrow it will be 2 weeks, and I am not losing any weight!! I was losing ok and then it just stopped. The day of surgery was March 3rd and I weighed 280. I am now 270.5 and it has been stuck there for days! I just want to see the numbers go down, even a little bit. I have a friend that had the bipass and a friend that had the sleeve and they both lost faster then I am. I know it has only been 2 weeks but I can't help feeling frusterated. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks so much for reading everyone!

Yes, I was sleeved on March 3rd. What do you want to know? Have you been sleeved yet or are you going to be sleeved? Stacie

Hi Mandie! I asked this same question about feeling full. I had my surgery on the 3rd and am on purée foods and still don't get that full feeling. I eat what I'm suppose to and stop. I just don't feel full. Do you get a tightness in your chest area in the middle? I do towards the end of my meal and I wonder if that is a sign that I'm full! Since we had our surgeries right around the same time it would be nice to have someone to talk to and compare notes with. Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks so much! I see the dr tomorrow and will ask him.

Hi! Did anyone else feel constantly sick to their stomach after being sleeved? I am a week and a half post op and for the last few days have just being feeling sick to my stomach. I would appreciate any feedback you may have for me.

I'm glad I don't get sick from the shakes! That's a good thing! I'm sorry you did/do.

Blondiee, I am actually on purée now and I can eat eggs a cottage cheese too. I just don't feel full. I don't know why?
