    When I was stalled I was eating 800 cals a day, I upped it to 900 and BAM! the stall was gone. So what I'm thinking is you're eating too few calories, you might want to up it a little and see what happens. Also switch up your workout routine or try something new to shock your body, it'll kick it back into gear! Hope this helps.
    It'll end, they always do =)

    I to was sleeved on 12/12/11 and at 5 weeks gained 2.4 pounds freaked out. It took another week and half before I started losing again. During this time my body was making it's own changes in the form of inches. I lost 3 inches over all during that time.
    I also changed how much I weighted myself to once a week (Tuesdays) the day after surgery. Because the scale was making me crazy :Banane55: .

    I would definitely up the calories a bit and see if that makes a difference. Everyone's body stalls at a point where its used to being at. In the past, have you dieted or been stable at this weight? Your body does tend to "remember" things - it will pass though

    Same here..I've hit the 3 or 4 week stall. Dropped 40 pounds in 2 and half weeks...now dropped like 4 in a week. I figured it was just the body adjusting back from the shock of surgery. I'm still watching what I eat and doing healthy choices so I figured I'm doing my part. COME ON SLEEVE GET BACK AT IT

    Your doing great so far. I felt ok my first day and thought I would be typing away, but I didn't feel like it for almost a week. So good for you. I just had my 3 week check up and Ive lost 30 pounds. So keep walking its the best thing you can do. Best wishes to you.

    I thought this would be a good prayer to pray, for you to bring comfort and peace doing this time, God bless you!!!
    Father in the mighty name of Jesus, I ask you Lord to touch the mind and hands of each surgeon, nurse, anesthesiologist and caretaker who will come in contact with me during my hospital stay. Lord, I pray that my liver is small enough so that the surgeon could work around it. Lord I pray that there would be no complication during or after surgery. Father, Allow no hurt, harm or danger to come to me. I pray for minimal pain, minimal gas and no mishaps. I pray that I will return home as scheduled, and that my recovery will be an easy one. Lord, I know that I am in your hand and it’s You whom I put ALL my trust in and that You O’ Lord have control over everything and I am glad that You are my keeper and my safety place is in You Lord where I hide myself and find rest.
    Thank You, Father for being the Creator of all things and creating me, NO ONE knows this body better than You.
    Lord, I also ask in the name of Jesus that you would watch over my children, while I am in the hospital, place Your Holy Angels around them, for You, O’ Lord am their safety nest too. Thank You Father.
    Amen.
