I'm in the same boat. My surgery was 9/28/21 and I lost 30 lbs very quickly, in the first 2 weeks or so. Then I stalled for almost 3 weeks. I've just recently started losing again, at a much slower pace, about 3-5 lbs. per week. Now at 9 weeks I am right about 45 lbs. down. Just keep at it... every little bit of progress is still progress and it will only get better.
Best of luck to you!

Congratulations! OMG I can't wait for this. I am one month post-op and down 30 lbs... I am going to Cabo for a wedding in April and I'm so excited to fly now that I can fit! I can't remember the last time I flew comfortably, especially since I always sit next to my husband or my son, both of whom are very broad. I might cry when I'm able to fasten the seatbelt and don't have to worry about being in the way of other passengers.
My goal is to be down 100 lbs. by Cabo!

I just wanted to share some positivity with everyone, especially those going through the hard phases of pre and post surgery right now, or those that are in the buyers remorse phase. I had my gastric sleeve done in July, I have since lost 80 lbs and today was my first time post surgery flying on an airplane. I used to be so embarrassed that the seatbelts didn’t fit me I would put a jacket over my waist so the flight attendants wouldn’t see my seatbelt couldn’t buckle because I was too embarrassed to ask for an extender. But today, just about 3 months post surgery, I am able to buckle and fasten the airplane seat belt. This was a huge win for me & I just had to share :)
Please try your best to stay positive and get through the hard phases, I promise it will be so worth it!

multicolored poop is common the first month. I had very light ones as well. It's because you're malabsorbing fat. My color normalized when I was about a month post-op.
