Should I Be Concerned I Need Feedback Please?

Ok so I got sleeved April 11 day of surgery I had lost 16 lbs on my preop diet and as of today I've only lost 8lbs since surgery and my weight has stayed the same the past few days WTH is going on I feel like I was doing so good on my preop diet and the first week postop but now I've been stalled and its barely going to be two weeks post op on Wednesday so I've lost a total of 23 lbs I'm afraid I'm gonna go to my two week follow up on Wednesday and the dr isnt gonna be happy with my progress ! I'm so frustrated I've been sticking to my diet surely I'm not stalled already ??? I need some inspiration haha !!

time of the month soon? do you weigh yourself everyday or once a week?

8 lbs, that's more than 1/2 lb a day. 23 lbs in 2 weeks is ridiculously good. Your body is going through alot and it's playing catch up to all the body drama. You will see results again just give it some time.

Remember, most patients come home heavier than the day of surgery from all the IV fluids they pump into you during your stay. I came home 8# heavier than the morning of my surgery. Your body has to lose that weight, while also recovering from the cutting and shock to the system. You're doing great, just try to be patient with yourself!

Actually I'm due to start anyday now so I guess that could be it ! I've only lost 8 lbs since surgery I've lost a total of 23 in the past month cause I lost 16 on my two week preop diet ! Thanks for the feedback :-)

LOL.... I remember feeling like that also. Your body is adjusting, besides , truly you are doing amazingly well. Look at the big picture, that much weight loss in so little time. You are doing great!

At two weeks I had only lost 17 lbs dont' worry I've been there. I'm now down 97 lbs from 230 and surpassed goal. The weight doesn't fall off like magic it takes time. And the slower the better. I would rather be slow without saggy skin then fast and saggy skin everywhere. Just remember you just started this journey it will come we have all been there. But also remember when was the lasttime you lost 23 lbs in two weeks. Think of it that way.... Good luck and congrats....
