  1. I am in the same boat. I was sleeved May 13. I have lost 25lbs with the preop and post bit have been stuck for about 3 weeks. Is this even normal so soon after surgery I am just 10 weeks out?
  2. Thanks everyone. I actually just started a journal today and also measured myself. Such positive comments. I was already weighing myself daily so I put the scale away. I work with 8 others who have been sleeved and none of them stalled this quickly. That is were my concern came from.
  3. Let me share my story. In December 2009, I had the lap-band, which worked great until I had to have an emergency removal in January 2013. The baNd had major slippage and needed to come out. I was supposed to have revision to bypass right then and there but my doctor did not feel it was safe because my stomach was so "angry." With the lap-band I went from 227 to about 145. I was at a size 4 and feeling great. So fast forward to May 2014, I was back at 209 and feeling horrible. I was finally approved to have the sleeve, which was done on May 13, 2014. The 2 weeks prior for the pre-op diet is went down to 200 on the day of surgery. I had the surgery and when I was released from the hospital I weighed 207, I guess cause all of the fluids. Yesterday was my 6 weeks post op and I am only at 185, Is this normal. I dont know what exactly I am supposed to expect. I was able to start walking/running at about 4 weeks and I started back at cross fit this week. Any help would be great. Since I was not able to keep the weight off after the lap-band removal I am really discouraged and feeling like this will not work. Has anyone had this happen.
