This is pretty typical weightloss. perhaps talk to your surgeon and nutritionist about what your expectations are

That is normal, how much did you expect to lose in 3 weeks? The first month involves a lot of adjusting. Search around this sight, you will see at least 30 recent threads about slow or stalled weight loss.
10 pounds in 3 weeks after major surgery is good.

Woot!

Fantastic! You're on fire!

GREAT JOB KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK

Amazeballs girl! You look like a million bucks! Congrats!

As of today's weigh in, I weigh exactly half of what I weighed when I began this journey! I've lost exactly 50% of my starting weight, and I've lost almost 85% of my excess weight! So glad I did this!

So im on my pre op diet and i have not cheat 1 bit and im not hangry yet. lol
The nurse called and we talked about my Protein i need to be eating! she said i can have a subway veggie sandwich with but on eat 1 side of the read. She told me i have a option daily i could eat any type of seafood throughout the day except lobster because it rubbery and harder to digest or a 4 oz lean meat like a steak and patty .


This is relief because i feel a food headache coming on BIG TIME.!

I can't imagine being discharged outpatient. I was in a world of hurt and they need to monitor your liquids.

I've honestly not heard of outpatient. I think it's pretty typical to stay one night. Where are you having surgery?

Maybe have them come to this site and read up. The surgery isn't a quick fix. I know that people who haven't had it/don't need it think that it is, but it isn't. Yes, it helps me not eat as much, but I still have to eat the right foods, drink my Water, exercise, etc.. People don't get that.
I've told everyone about my surgery. I'm not trying to hide it from anyone, and I'm not ashamed of the fact that I had it. I just saw someone this weekend that I hadn't seen in a while, and she complimented me on my weight loss then asked how I did it. I explained that I had the sleeve, but I also have to watch what I eat and exercise. All she said back was "maybe, I should do that". I haven't had one negative comment/reaction about my sleeve, but, again, I don't try to hide it. I'm proud that I made this decision, and I let people know that I'm proud.

Go back to basics! you know what you are doing wrong. That is the first step, the second step is to go back to what works, and the 3rd step is to follow through. You got this!

I'm 13 months post op. My acid reflux hasn't gotten better or worse. I would choose the VSG again.
