I am a little bummed. I am two and a half weeks post op and I do not feel like I'm losing much weight. Am I over reacting? Is this just in my head? I lost more during my week of liquids Pre op than I have post surgery. I lost 14 pounds Pre op and I still haven't lost a total of 20 pounds yet. Is something wrong????

Oh hun....I am so sorry u r stressed out over this...our heads get in the way so much. I m one day ahead of u post op and my surgeon said it is all in my head. I'm doing everything the doc is telling me he said to quit com pairing myself to others and enjoy my own journey.

Hang in there. Losing over 14 in 4 weeks is awesome!

Totally uersand how you feel. I am 4 weeks out and have lost 25 since the two weeks before. I have been stalled for 2 weeks and I was expecting more to drop and now i feel like my worst fear has come true that i am going to be at this weight forever.

Post surgery drama. Disregard and move on... it gets better and the weigh MELTS off.

Stay off the scale for a few days and drink your Water and eat right - you will amaze yourself.

Very normal when you have a pretty good loss pre-op. Hang in there, it will come off. Just follow your nutritionist's guidelines.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
