Hello all, i know that this is a long post, but I would really appreciate your responses. I am in a real shitty situation! I had the Gastric Sleeve Surgery back in July of 2016, which makes it 8 months post op. At first everything was going well, the first month I lost 18 lbs, the second month I lost 6, then the third 5, then the fourth stayed the same, then it was Thanksgiving and Christmas (Holiday Season) and thats when it all went down hill. I stayed the same weight until after christmas. At this point up to christmas I lost about 30lbs in 5 months, and now I gained some weight and my total weight loss is 22 lbs, so I gained 8lbs from december until now (March 29th). I really want to start losing the weight again, but im afraid that it won't come off as fast as it would have closer to surgery. In 4 months it will already be a year!

Hey Everyone, so I had my surgery on Mon-July-25th & started a liquid diet on July 24th. I am still on a liquid diet and I am 8 days post op. I was wondering how long you were on a liquid diet after surgery? I am starting to get hungry (even though most of it is my mind playing tricks), but it would be nice to have some pureed food or even yogurt! Yesterday I started getting lightheaded and it's back again today I am drinking my liquids, having broth, Jello, & Premier Protein. Did any of you go through this?

@@KristenLe : I had creamed Soup and I didn't like it very much. I am not on any meds and in fact I stopped taking my pain medication because I no longer have pain

I had a lot of pain there, it was pulling as if the skin and attached muscle had been stitched to something inside me that only lined up when I was lying down. When I stood or sat it was really uncomfortable. It got so bad after the first week that I rang the nurse and she told me that some people get the pain and some don't, sometimes the surgeons hit a nerve and that causes the pain to be worst for some people. And that it would go away.
She was right! It progressively got better and by about week three I wasn't in any pain at all. So hang in there, it will get better
