Im 2 wks post. Have only lost a few since. Are you still on liquids? If you're not getting alot of calories in this could be why. Our bodies are in starvation mode. I start mushy tomorrow. Once you start eating more normal foods we should start to see the numbers. I know it sux.

I'm almost 3 weeks out. Lost 17 and now the scale says I gained 4 back. Not sure how that is even possible being that I'm following the doctors orders. I'm very discouraged myself and feel like a failure.

Oh it will do that! Did that to me for 2 weeks then I just dropped 3 lbs in a week. So it was week 4-5 for me. Hang in there.

We all struggle with stalls. So I'm pretty much not going to focus on the scales and eat healthy. My weight has really slowed down according to the scale but I'm noticing by stomach has more loose skin as well as my thighs. I've gone down to a size 6 pants :). So there's no way your not going to lose weight. Eat Protein, protein, proteinn, and if able eat veggies. Eat to live andexercise. Oh it's important to drink a lot of Water. ;)

Hi guys.

Thanx for support and words of encouragement. New focus today. scales put in shed. Diarise everything I eat. Try drink more than a litre and walk walk walk.

See doc week tomorrow so we will see if it works.

Wish me luck.

How much did you lose pre-op??? If you lost a lot that makes a huge difference..

You could have hit your stall early.. There NO WAY that you won't lose weight.

Just keep doing what you are doing and the scale will go down ...Promise!!

I know people say this and I didn't believe it, but take your measurements regularly! I found when I was stalling was when I was actually getting smaller and when I was losing my size wasn't changing,

I have been on a stall since December, with only ONE pound lost, but I have gone from a size 12 to a size 8, so I know I'm still shrinking even though I'm stuck at 168.

I was 216 on my surgery date in September and have been 168 since december. We REALLY need to focus on size instead of scale numbers.

      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! 😞
