You got the surgery done at 176 pounds??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got sleeved June 6th 2016. On surgery day I weighed in at 345 pounds! Today July 21st 2016 I currently weigh 288! So that's 57 pounds in 6 weeks! Not bad My surgeon was very surprised and happy with my results. But I told him I do 4 miles of cardio everyday! The surgery is great, but it's what you do after that really makes the difference! I hope you all are having a great weight loss journey! And for those in the process of getting it, I hope this gave you some motivation!

You men losing these huge amounts in the first month that most women can only dream and complaining they aren't large enough makes me want to punch something.

I think so Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you all for the feedback! Well to update this post...I'm now 1 month post op and I currently weigh 299! So I actually lost 14 more pounds since I posted this! Yes I was panicking for no reason I was 343 when I got the surgery so I've lost 44 in the first month! So I'm very happy about that! If anyone recently got the surgery done and is freakin out like I was, DONT! The weight will drop

If I am reading your post correctly you are just over a month post op. A stalled around that time is normal. At 3 weeks, I stalled for over 10 days while my body adjusted to the recent weight loss. It will start again. I wouldnt worry about calories at this point. Your body needs calories to function. If you starve your body too much by dieting, it will go into survival mode and stall you out. Us guys lose weight pretty fast. I lost over 160lbs in less than a year. I dont diet or count my calories. I eat whatever I want when I want. I had a small piece of birthday cake and icecream at my daughters party last weekend woke up the next morning and had lost another pound. Just use common sense and never over eat! Dieting sucks,thats why I got the sleeve. You re gonna do great.

My Dr told me the first 6 weeks are for healing not weight loss, and weight isn't even supposed to be your focus in the first 6 weeks. Getting your Protein and fluids in is supposed to be your primary concern. After 6 weeks I saw a major increase in my weight loss. Give it time and don't stress about it. Stress keeps you fat.

You're 1000% right girl! I know the stall will come as it does in every weight loss journey! I'm just happy I'm seeing results But your advice is spot on Thank you Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

They weighed me at the hospital right after surgery on Monday and I was 335 pounds! Now Fri morning I'm 318 I'll take that lol I'm sure once I start the exercising it will come off quicker. I'm 6'3 so my goal weight isn't too far away! I'm glad I made this decision! And you should be to

I'm almost 2 weeks out and I was put on soft foods on Monday. It was probably the best day of my life I've been eating refried Beans with shredded cheese, turkey chili, low fat cheese sticks, mashed potatoes with no problem! I do get full fast but the food goes down with no problem! I was afraid I would have problems eating but I've been great so far! If you're still on liquids, don't be discouraged! It gets way better
