Hi guys. I had surgery on February 6 and lost 16 pounds in the first week and a half. Then I didn't lose weight at all for 3 weeks. Finally in march I started losing weight again and I am now down 33 pounds!! It feels so good. I work as a corrections officer and my smallest pants I had when I first started working are now loose on me. I just want to say dont get discouraged. I was majorly and now I am so so happy. Hang in there!!

Awesome! I am relieved to hear that, I lost 17lbs the first two weeks (surgery 3/14), then a pound here and a pound there, I couldn't believe it since I am eating about 12 oz of food everyday (broken into 3 meals). Your information calmed me down alot! Thanx!

Hi. We are the same height and near the same starting weight too and the same age! I am 8 months out and have lost 79 pounds so far. I dont want you to get discouraged with these little stalls. They are going to happen along the way. Just accept them and know in the back of your mind that you will keep losing and get to your goal! I am 20 pounds from mine and that is nothing compared to 100 that I started with. Hang in there!

Thank goodness ! I am two weeks out and have only lost 5 lbs !!! THIS concerns me. Maybe I will lose more soon ?!?! I am soooooo discouraged right now. I just started some actual "food" today so maybe I need some in order to lose some weight because I functioned on liquids for two weeks ?

Hey. It was easier for me when I started eating solid food. I swear I was able to eat so much more on puréed foods. Don't worry. It'll show soon. I was the same way.

Oh I'm glad. It'll show soon. Everyone told me they went on stalls but I seemed to hi mine really early. Then all of a sudden it broke and I just keep losing weight now. Its like 7 pounds that first week after the stall. Then two pounds a week. This week I lost 5. It gets better

      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?

      April Surgery
      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! 😞
