I think everyone is different and I agree it's a tool. I was sleeved 7/6 and I've lost 34 pds. I didn't lose anything for 30 days and the scale just started back moving. I lost most of my weight right after surgery. Like a pd or 2 a day. I struggled a along time to lose weight and I am glad I did it. At least I am losing and keeping it off this time. No regrets no rush. I do need to increase my exercise.

Scale just started moving a little. Its been 5wks. UGG! My doctor told me to increase my water and that did seem to help.

I am thinking I am not eating enough. I know i am only getting in around 600 maybe 700 calories

Thank you for the information. Good to know. No milkshakes this way. Good thing is i really don't have a sweet tooth. Just a potato lover

So basically its just the normal body performance. It's nothing I'm doing?

I hear it suppose to be the norm. Same thing my doc said too but when you get use to seeing 2/3 pounds dropping every day it becomes disappointing when it just stop to nothing.

A lot of people say 2wks or even less. NOT ME! I took 6wks of short term disability which my job paid me at 100%. Even if they didn't I wanted to focus on me. The deep stitch they do where the stomach is pulled out took a long time to feel better also I had a lot of fatigue. This was alot to process for me in general so I took my time. My PCP extended my leave but Surgeon kind of made me feel rushed.

I've been stuck at the same weight of 232/233 since 7/31. I was sleeved 7/6. I even gain 2 pounds and went to 235 for a few days. Why is this? Will the scale start back moving any time soon?

Hello Monique. Hope you are doing well. I didnt tell many people either

Just think about why you are doing it and the outcome...slim thick...yasss. Stay positive. your emotions are normal

My boyfriend or whatever you call him...lol and my best friend recorded me. Girl I was a complete mess. Once they start pumping those drugs in you...you will have no worries. Everything will be fine. It is like they rolled me into a party. lol. It has taken some getting use to. i was 3wks post op yesterday. It is a struggle finding pureed foods for me but I'm making it. Also only being able to eat about a ounce and a half of food seems a little weird.

I felt like it wasn't coming fast enough and then it was like wait I'm not ready all the way up until the time they rolled me back to surgery. Which surgery are you having? I had the sleeve

So have you had surgery still undecided? Whats your story?

Hey hun!

I'm trying to understand why wine would be a problem or anything under 7%. They gave me hydrcodone and it has 7% alcohol.
