I'm Ready For Weight Loss To Start! Soon Please....



Recommended Posts

Had my revision May 9th. I know I'll be slow to lose since I only have 50 lbs to lose total but I'm only down 2 lbs from pre-surgery weight. For a while I was up a few lbs, due to swelling I imagine. Should this be kicking in soon or is this rate what I need to expect? I know we're all different and I'm probably just being impatient but did anyone who started out at a lower weight have to wait a while for the loss to start? I have a friend at work who was sleeved April 23rd at 360 lbs and is already down around 35 lbs. I've been walking a ton and following the diet and during the pre-op week diet I lost around 8.

I'm 4 days post op & I'm up over 10 lb, back to my pre-surgery diet weight. Guess its just lots of hospital fluids, hopefully will go down soon!

      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! 😞
