I have stayed off the scale for a while because I was getting so frustrated. Got back yesterday and still nothing after 2 weeks. Ugg. Is anyone else having these problems or did have them? If so, what did u have to do to jump start your weight loss again?

I have only loss 5lbs in the last 2 months, (49 since September 9). I've been following all of the rules. Getting my protein in. Going to the gym 5 days a week. I really don't know what else to do. Do u have any suggestions to jump start my weight loss???

My stomach start to growl, like it use to before the surgery. I take 2-3 bites of something and then full again for a while.

Usually my belly starts to growl like it use to so I take 2 or 3 bites of something and it goes away and I am full again.

I was sleeved on Sept 9. I was reversed from Lap Band. I also had to have my gullbladder taken out. The pain at first was unbearable but I am feeling wonderful now. I tried to go back to work in 6 days. That didn't work out very well for me. I ended up taking off the rest of the week. I am back to work now. I have a desk job and have a little discomfort where my big incision is due to my pants sitting on it all day. I am on soft foods. Everything seems to be going to down great. I can only take 3 bites of my food and then I am full but hungary again in 2 hours or so. I am 2 weeks and 1 day post op and I am down 21 pounds. Still have aobut 70-80 more that I would love to loose.

I dont know about diarrhea. I finally had my first bowl movement today but it was extremely hard.

I am doing better. I had a lot of pain for the first day and a half. So much pain that I was regretting getting the surgery. They normally let there patients go home the next day but I was no way close enough to go home yet. I had a band removal, gallbladder removal, scartissue removed and then the sleeve. I have been able to get down broth and my protein shakes but I am scared to try anything else.

I was sleeved Tuesday sept 9. Any others out there? How r u feeling?

Thank you.

Tomorrow at 730. Wow. My nerves are really starting to pick up now.

I am starting to get really nervous. Tomorrow is my day. I have to be at the hospital at 530am ans should be on the operating table at 730am.

I am hoping to get banded to sleeve in the same operation. I am scheduled for Sept 9 at 7:30am. I am supper excited and scared at the same time. I have a 6mth old boy that I have to make sure is taken care of too. When I got my band my recovery was a breeze, I am hoping for the same but we will see. Can anyone give me any helpful tips on what to expect the first couple of days after surgery. I only took off 4 days off of work so I am a little worried that I won't be able to get back to work in the amount of time that I want to.

I am set up for Sept 9. I'm getting nervous. I hope they can take the band out and do the sleeve all in one surgery.
