Hi there! My husband and I were sleeved on the 11th also. We see our surgeon for our 6 month follow up next Friday. My husband has reached goal, but I've got about 85 to go.

Hey Everyone! I was sleeved September 11th and down 75lbs. I have hit a stall the past three weeks and have even gained two lbs. in the past week. Not sure what's going on but I hope I can't get it back together and keep up the weight lose. I still have about 100lbs to lose.

Hello,
I have been on here in awhile but I was sleeved on September 23rd and I'm done 60lbs. I'm so excited about my new body and the love of exercising. I have about 35 lbs to go until I'm under 200.

Sleeved 9/8 today's weigh in marks 81 pounds gone. ???????????????? so excited !

Sleeved 9/30/14 and I'm at another stall. This one had lasted a month. I've upped my Water to 80 oz. My Protein is between 60-80 grams. I do cardio/weights 30-60 mins 4 days a week. There is a difference in my clothes but the scale is another story. Got on the scale this morning and it said I gained a lb. So frustrating, but I won't give up. Rant over, thanks ????

I've only lost 43 lbs since 9/15. Not nearly as much off as I would like, but thankful it's off just the same.

I was sleeved on Sept. 30. I am down 85 pounds today. I've had a couple of short stalls but nothing that had me worried. But I can still barely eat anything. I can't even eat a whole egg at once. I'm getting about 35 gms of Protein a day and around 500 calories. I'm 5 months out and feel like I should be doing better than that by now. But I'm so thankful for the weight loss.

I only weight my self once a month or when I go to the doctor's. If I have had a stall I missed it. I have shown a loss every time I get weighed. I'm down 62lbs so far. I eat between 700-850 calories most days and exercise 5 days a week. I eat Protein first then veg and very little rice, potatoes, bread, crackers, etc....

I was sleeved 9/23, have lost 78 lbs. I stalled for a good month and finally scale going down again.

Stalls are normal and happen to everyone. It's your body readjusting to the many changes. Some say they can last a few days or even up to a month.

Just hang in there!! Use the stall time to reinforce good eating habits and better life activities. If you aren't losing weight, unclutter your environment. Clean up the pantry, straighten the linen closet .... Honest, I lose 2 pounds a month since November. If it weren't for these other activities, I would go mad!! Mad, I tell ha!!

@@skinnymom25 I'm in the same boat. I was sleeved on 9/8 and my stall hit at month 3 and hasn't ended yet. It's been 7 weeks since I lost anything and then this week I lost 0.6 pounds. I have several friends that went through the same thing and speaking with and knowing that eventually it kicks back in helps. And I'm the same in eating. 2 eggs or 4 oz of meat are no problem yet a 1/2 cup of Tomato Soup will fill me up. Your doing great, don't get discouraged just keep to the program and it will pick back up.

Maybe it's because I don't weight myself daily, but every single time I have gotten weighed I have shown a loss. Sometimes a big number, others times as low as 6lbs, but always a loss.
@@skinnymom - I can never eat more than 1 egg at a time, but I can eat anywhere from 6 -8 ounces of yogurt. A cup of Soup fills me up.

Was sleeved on 9/24. Lost 20 lbs in the first 2-3 weeks. I m doing great - avg about 1lb a week which is what the nutritionoist told me to expect as my start weight was at 200lb. I am down to 160, my goal is 150. I have found over the past 3 weeks I have not lost any weight. Thankfully I am not loosing hair, but I feel like I am failing ..... My doc said they expect a stall @ 3 months, but he said weight loss returns "in full force" by month 4. No go for me. Granted I am down from pushing the limits of a size 16 down to a size 10 pant & size 12 top. I still have some fat that I swear I can feel jiggle on my back and lower belly and it drives me crazy. I am getting a little discouraged. I am concerned because I can eat 2 eggs for Breakfast, 3-4 oz of meat for dinner... and I see other people saying they can barely eat a whole yogurt, etc... make me worry. Is anyone else in this stall? Is it just me?

I was sleeved on 9/17/14 and am down 61 lbs. My nutritionist said that was pretty good. We must all give our selves credit that we made it through the very stressful holidays. Take a deep breath and get inspiration as spring is on the way. I have been using my fitnesspal.com and find it very helpful especially during stalls. I am noticing a trend with my weight loss, the reports section gives you a graph and that helps me. I find if I record what I eat it is when I have the most success. I have upped my work outs and am doing weight training 2 days a week with a trainer, I have also found that I love Yoga (never in my life dreamed I would even try it) . I would like to see the weight come off faster, but I am just so glad it is coming off and it feels so good to feel healthier in the long run. Keep up the good work every one....remember it is a journey.

Had a NSV moment with this past weekend's snowstorm. Put on my snow pants that I couldn't even snap up last year and they were too big. Yeah!????

I'm probably around this range. I was down 55 at my last f/u about a month ago. I have an appointment on the 19th and I should get a weight update then. I think this rate is actually kind of in the middle. Not what I'd called extremely slow, but not super fast either. I'm actually okay with it because I'm hoping it will mean less skin sagging.

It has cheered me up hearing that not everyone is losing weight really fast. I was sleeved on 09/19/14 and have lost 58lb since surgery. I seem to have hit a stall over the past month and have lost hardly anything despite getting more exercise and still eating small portions. I still think 58lb is pretty good but when you hear of people losing 100lb over the same period you begin to wonder what you are doing wrong.

I was sleeved 9/23 and down about 35. Terribly slow but no regrets.

Thanks for the encouraging words I need to hear postive stuff

I have lost 53 pounds since surgery 9/24/14, 71 pounds since last March, and 94 pounds from my heaviest two years ago. I lose about 2 pounds a week now, my NUT (1/6/15) says I am ahead of where I should be, I thought I should have lost more! But slow and steady is how to go. Had a friend who was sleeved, lost her weight really quickly. At 40 she looks mid 50s. She looks like those pictures of what drugs and alcohol does to your looks!
I really do need to drink more Water.

I'm down only 38lbs since surgery 9/30/14. I thought/think my loss is slow, but slow and steady wins the race ????. I'm getting 65-80 grams of Protein, could do better with my Water and exercising 3-4 days a week. I went back to shakes once a day and it has kicked my weight loss back in gear. I would like to lose about 40-45 more to get my BMI to 30.

Hi everyone! Vicky here. I was sleeved 9/23/14. I'm down almost 60 lbs. From 256 to 197 but honestly have been stuck for like 3-4 weeks now when I was losing 2 lbs weekly. Very scared that this is it, but thanks to you guys, I'm keeping the faith that weight loss will pick up again on a few weeks. Fingers crossed. I'm still 36 lbs from my goal weight

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.
