  1. I could use some guidance. I know they say you shouldn’t weigh yourself often at home, but I weighed myself this morning for the first time in a week. I gained 3 pounds! I haven’t done anything different and I’m only a month postop, so I am only eating puréed and soft foods. Has this happened to anybody else? Any advice to get through this and not be totally depressed?

    Thank you for all the support! @summerseeker how many calories a day is your goal?

    Weight gain

    Thank you so much! I do only weigh myself once a week, so this was a real shocker. And depressing.
  4. I am three weeks post Sleeve surgery. Today my father said to me, “when will I be able to tell a difference when I look at you?“ This comment stung because I have lost 40 pounds since beginning the process in November. However, I still have more than 100 to go. Despite losing the weight, none of my clothes, fit any differently, I have not gone down in size, and nobody has noticed the weight loss except for me. My question is, how far along after your surgery were you before people noticed you were losing weight?
  5. Hi! I am about 10 days postop from having the sleeve, and as a lot of people, I am having trouble getting all of my meals in. I was wondering if anybody had any tips such as setting a timer to remind you to have a meal, and if you did set a timer, how often did you set it for?

    Any 50yo or older?

    I am 53 (as of yesterday) and my surgery is scheduled for 2/16/23. I’m excited but also nervous. And this pre-op liquid diet has been hard. Any advice for calming my nerves?
