I had my sleeve on 9/15/14 too. I have lost 30 lbs and handfuls of hair. I have been struggling to say the least. It was great to see your post and realize that I'm not the only person that is losing slowly. Don't get me wrong I am happy that I am down 30 lbs but it's hard to sign on and see other people losing 60-100 lbs in the same time frame.

I so feel your pain. The same thing happened to me. I stopped losing weight day 8. I have lost 12 pounds total. My doctor says this is normal. so don't panic. I'm trying not to. I do feel a difference in my clothes.

I am a month out today. I know that everyone's diets are very different. I'm wondering about how many calories people are eating. I am exercising about 4 days a week for 45-60 minutes a day. I burn between 500-750 calories. Tonight I am starving but I have had 850 calories. Does this sound about right?

I was sleeved on 9/15 and had lost 12 pounds and then day 8 nothing. I actually gained a few pounds and have been sitting there for almost two weeks. My doc said it was completely normal. It's super frustrating but hanging in there and going to the gym 4 times a week thinking something will eventually happen.

I was sleeved on 9/15 and started back at the gym on 9/28. I did elliptical and treadmill. But I haven't had much pain and was good with getting fluids down. My post-op appointment was on Wednesday and he cleared me for weights up to 20 lbs.

I am four days out today and I think I could do it. But I would have the realistic expectation that I wouldn't be hanging out for long at the reception. It's not the pain but its the endurance and you don't really want to push yourself that much. Sitting at the wedding and then for thirty minutes at the reception for me would be completely doable.

I tried some premix broth from costco yesterday and couldn't do it. I might add some Water to it and give it a go.
My surgery isn't until 4pm tomorrow! UGH! So excited for you. I am not great at the twitter but I will have plenty of time tomorrow to look into it. Best of luck tomorrow!

My surgery is tomorrow 9/15/14. Started the liquid diet yesterday and had no idea how hungry I would be. I have two active kids that I was running around all day and the headache was crazy. Today is much better. Hanging around the house getting all the laundry done before tomorrow.
I'm 42 250 pounds and about 5'7. My goal weight for myself is 155. I would love buddies to keep in touch with as this journey begins!!!!

I only have to do the two days for pre op. I'm not going to lie it's not a good time. It's doable but be prepared to be hungry.
