I had my surgery on the 10th. I lost about 5 lbs the first week after surgery, but I have gained a half lb during the Mushie week. I'm a little disappointed. I have to drink two boost drinks a day, which is almost 500 calories. Plus the Mushie food I eat.

that's normal...your weight will be up and down for the first month of surgery...stay away from the scalee atleast for the first month if not you will drive yourself crazy...let your body heal and the weight will drop from there..

Thanks, ladies! I guess I just need to give it time. I could drink some other drinks, I just hate to waste what I already have...

Normal, there is no expected weight loss in the first six weeks after surgery. Most loss a few pounds but the sliders we have to eat in the beginnng to give our self to heal are higher in carbs and calories. In the beginning it is key to stay hydrated and drink your Protein. Your body needs to heal.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
