3 Months Post Op - Slowed Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm 3 months post op and have lost a total of 60 pounds, (9 were from the 1 week pre-op liquid diet). I'm wondering if its normal that my weightloss has slowed down so much. I lost about 50 pounds in the first 2 months and have only lost 10 pounds in the last month. I am worried that it will continue to slow. My start weight was 340 and i'm at 280 now, which is great, but i'm worried it'll continue to slow down and I will not continue to lose. I'm starting to recognize between hunger and head hunger and am trying to make healthier choices, but sometimes I stumble. I struggle with recognizing when I'm full and not feeling guilty if anything is left on my plate. Will this get easier? I don't want to stretch my sleeve and am worried I am eating more than I should. Right now, I can eat about 1 egg with about 3/4 piece of toast for Breakfast, about 1 cup of salad with 2 oz of chicken for lunch. Is this typical or am I eating too much?

thanks,

Johanna

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
