6 Weeks Post Op, Stall, Inches Lost, Onderland



Recommended Posts

Hi, everyone. I have been stuck on 205 for about two weeks. I wasnt worried, because I read about stalls. My inches are dramatic though, I look smaller than the weight. I got on the scale this morning, 198, I am in onderland. I tried the gym last week and was sore than sore itself. This week I will try agin, proabably not basketball or racquet ball with the kids though. I am fitting 12s, was in sizes 14w/16 depending on how they were made. One thing I noticed was that once I was able to eat more the weight started to come off, I eat about 800-900 calories. I am feeling great. I will try to add a picture.

That is fantastic! I am 5 weeks out and been in a bit of a stall myself, I'm having a hard time tolerating fluids and foods... Only eating 500 cal/day... I'm going to use your example and try to up to 7-800 and see if I can break the stall! Again, congrats on your success!!

That is so great! Proud for you. I wish I could get to where I could eat. I have around 2-300 cal a day. I am dropping weight like crazy, but I am worried about my health. Maybe I'll catch on soon. I am two months out.

Awesome! Congrats on your success! It should be a great feeling to see dramatic inch losses in just 6 weeks!

I did not measure inches pre-op, so I dont have the 'correct' measurements. I just felt my dresses getting looser. At three months post op I can definitely see the changes in my appearance now. But I have 18 more pounds to lose to get to onderland. :(

Thanks everyone, it feels good to be on the losers bench. I am so excited. My body definitely needs food to drop weight.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
