Bleeding for 5 weeks... Gyno said ok...but I'm thinking about getting second opinion...I'm taking the pill

I need opinions please help me. I started with 186 at 5"2, currently I am at 160.8,, 7 weeks out. I am super happy with the loss although i only lost 4 lbs this month.. I only can eat very little, and I am super full, which I love it. I eat very little carbs and only cheated couple times...My cheat consists of 1 bite of Pasta, seriously 1 spoon...

I am a little upset, because I did this because I hate diets, and I failed at all of them. My goal with this surgery was to restrict food portion and lose weight but eating so little that I would lose regardless. I am learning that no matter how little you eat, you might not lose? Am I right, or I am stalling? If I used to eat 2.500 cal perday before surgery and now I eat 700 but I have carbs I still wont lose because if you eat carbs you wont lose? I am so confused... I thought calories were a number.. regardless of what you eat...if you eat 800 calories in a day and burn 3000 cal you lose even if you ate a burger...

I am just venting because I hate diets and i feel i am in a endless diet...Maybe i am stressed..I have to plan every meal i eat, plan the carbs, Protein....we ended fat for a reason, and the reason is that we are terrible at diets..Aren't we on a diet again...Ok you will tell me we are on a life change, I know..I am, I dont eat anymore...I eat Protein now...but the measuring what, why and when...do you identify?

I'm 1 month out and when my stomach is empty in hungry but how much you eat there you go....then after 3 hours I'm hungry again then I have my Protein Shake. I eat every 3 hours. Three meals and 2 snacks...but I still get hungry right before the 3 hour mark.

I had my surgery 8/26 and I losr 1 more lb than you and I am super happy. I would never ever would lost this weight on my own( i mean on my own without the sleeve)

, plus we are smaller so 10% of weight loss is amazing...calculate % of weight loss, and not actually a number of lbs, someone that weighs 300lbs might lose 30Lbs this is 10% of their weight...You did great!!!

Can you imagine in 1 year? This is how I think!

Surgery 8/26 18lbs so far I'm happy! I can't tolerate eggs and I love eggs...my sleeve doesn't let me know that I'm getting full I go from starving to getting sick I still get 2 to 3 oz but depending of what I'm eating I can tolerate or not...I'm so bored of food options and I dont like cooking...I miss steak but have a feeling it will be too much for me...let's see how many lbs I will lose on my second month...I f I lose 10 I will be happy!

I just posted the same thing my surgery was on 8/26. Can't wait to see the scale moving because I'm eating very little.

Thanks so much

Im 3 weeks post op. Lost 16lbs in 2 weeks because for the last week I stalled, I eat so little, how can this be? How can my body not lose weight for a whole week when i eat barely 500-600 cal per day?

I am so traumatized of years of dieting with no results...This cant be it!!!

Please help me...

Can you give us the recipe?

Hi all! I had my sleeve done on 8/11/15....beginning was a little rough for me. Got a little too dehydrated and was having some bad palpitations. Started feeling better once I was able to get 2L of fluids from ER. Also due to medication allergy, I didn't have anything good to control my pain. I am currently on soft foods...doing very well with foods. Just cannot handle any Protein drinks. Too thick and disgustingly sweet! I liked them pre-surgery very well!!

September 2014 I weighed in at 275lbs.....Day of surgery (8/11/15) I was 254 and (Today 9/15/15) I am 236. Right now I am noticing more of inches that are dissappearing than the pounds. My dr warned me to not get discouraged if I did not see any lbs dropping between my 2 week post-op and next appt (9/24) because I lost more than what he thought I would during the first two weeks. However, he said after the 6 week mark lbs should start dropping again. Even with the warning....I have still been discouraged.

I am new to this support group...just signed up tonight! I felt it was time to reach out to other people, besides my hubby or parents (who all have had the sleeve). Sometimes it helps to talk to strangers in the same boat!

My plan is bkfast 3oz of an Greek yogurt triple zero oikos

12:00Lunch pure Protein usually 2 oz of tuna

15:00 Protein Shake eas 100 cal

18:00 dinner 2oz protein+ 1 kitchen spoon of Beans mashed

21:00 another 100 cal protein shake sometimes I can't because I'm too full but my doc suggests 2 shakes a day

Of course I chew a lot I added the bean because eating only 3 swrimp for dinner I'm afraid to faint

Surgery 3 weeks ago my doctor allows us patients to advance a stage so I had Beans swrimp with a little melted cheese but I think just the swrimp would be enough I'm so full...I'm still learning

I bought them ready to eat puréed at whole foods

Had surgery on the 26th..Im so happy to report that today 15 days after I can drink without having to sip, I can do 3 gulps medium size ones...lol...who thought I would be celebrating this type of a thing...yayay!!1

I'm 13 days post and went out to do groceries pretty much ...I'm so bored because I haven't gone out to eat anymore...

Tomorrow I go back to work thank god!

I love sushi and I miss it ...I'm only two weeks out

Thanks..I love going to the movies and the popcorn smell kills me

I'm 11 days out I know I can't have popcorn yet...but when? I love the 100 calories packs...

No sit ups yet

I'm so bored at home for a week surgery on the 26th..it shall pass and I m not hungry but keep having head cravings of meatballs or lasagna oh the tv commercials...

You will get better

I'm on it since day 3

On MY plan I can but only max 1-2oz

For the ones that went back to work in 1 week congrats... I'm 1w1d and went out to get my nails done and felt very weak specially walking from my car to the store in the heat of south Florida ..I can't imagine working all day..

@leanor I don't think you can't eat cracker? Maybe that's why

U felt so sick after?

I have a gffriend that had surgery 5 years ago she lost all the excess weight And now has a completely normal life and drinks beer on the weekends like a college pro

But remember her surgery was 5 years ago and she still watches if she is gaining

Im not eating real food yet the egg and puréed tuna with mayo my doctor is early as far as eating Proteins but I think the egg is too much I didn't feel good tuna is ok I feel ok..
