Kind of upset did not loss any weight yesterday to today. Don't know if it's because I'm bloated or what but not seeing that number go down makes it hard for me to keep up with shakes and Water.< /p>

Stay with it! I started a kind of pre-pre op diet 3 weeks before my actual 2 week pre op (which started 4 days ago) and the scale didn't move for almost 2 weeks. It was incredibly defeating - then finally it started to move. It will move again for you too!!!

I did not lose much of anything on my pre or post-op. It was most defeating but that is the way it happened. I got my first fill 2 weeks ago and the scale is finally moving, so I guess it takes sometime for some of us. Everyone is going to lose differently, so just because it not not moving now does not mean it won't move later just keep doing what your suppose to be doing. Good luck

Stay away from the scale, stay away from the scale...oh and stay away from the scale. I cannot say that enough times.

I'm presuming you are newly banded as you mention bloating....which is very common after surgery. Do yourself a favor and don't weigh yourself especially as it seems that you are negatively affected by what the scale says. Just follow the program and I can virtually guarantee you will be successful. This is not a sprint, you didn't gain it overnight and you won't lose it overnight either. Good luck!

Don't sweat it, you're going to be obsessed by the scale numbers and that can be very frustrating. Just stick with the plan and the weight will come off! Good luck!

Thanks for the advice. I will stay away. I'm not banded yet. July 9 is the day. I meant bloated from my period.

Even more reason to stay away from the scale. Nothing you can do about monthly bloat...it is what it is. Good luck with your surgery..see you on the other side.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
