bookworm88 got a reaction from Findaway in PLEASE HELP. I’m 2 weeks post op with very little weight loss.I have the same problem. My SW on surgery day was 265 and I have lost 7.8 lbs in 2 weeks. I have to keep reminding myself that this will pass and I might lose slow than someone with a higher BMI (mine is 40.3).

bookworm88 got a reaction from Nay143 in PLEASE HELP. I’m 2 weeks post op with very little weight loss.I am about 11 weeks post op and I have lost 36 lbs since surgery day. I have some weeks when I lose 4 lbs and some where I stall and lose nothing. My doctor suggested weighing myself once a week instead of daily to help me see that my progress may be slow, but it is moving me towards my goal. I use an app that tracks of percentage of weight loss, instead of just lbs, which helps me see how far I have come.
HW: 274.4
SW: 265

bookworm88 got a reaction from rs in Post OP regretsI am now 16 days post OP and feeling much better. My weight loss has not been as much as I hoped, but my surgeon says I am on track for a person of my height and starting weight. (7.8lbs down since surgery!) I deal with depression every day, so I am learning to not be as hard on myself. I feel limited by what I can eat, but am trying to replace food thoughts with planning new activities with friends and family to keep me busy.

bookworm88 got a reaction from CESILEYRAE in HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO GET A SURGERY DATE FROM THE DAY YOU FILLED OUT YOUR QUESTIONNAIRE?It took me about 3.5 months to get a surgery date, and I will have surgery just shy of 4 months after my initial consultation with my surgeon (January 30 to May 23)
