I was sleeves on 6/25. So far I've lost 27 lbs. And of course I'm happy because if I wasn't sleeved I would've never been able to lose that in 3 weeks, but in this last week I've only lost 2 lbs, I'm curious how the other 6-25 Sleevers are doing and did you slow down on the 3rd week?

I was sleeved 6/29 and have lost almost 20 lbs. My surgeon told me before surgery that my loss would be slower due to lower bmi. I get a little frustrated but I would whether be slowly going down instead of stuck or up. Good luck!

I was sleeved 6/25 as well. I am on my 3 week stall right now...I went down to 260 (from 303) and today was back at 262..Oh well! My clothes are looser so I know I am losing inches. Look at my profile picture to show you where I am since 6/4. I was surprised by the difference. Also there is a topic here " June Sleevers! Hows It Going?" If you want to see more June sleevers! I am happy and just going to wait the stall out. One thing I noticed was bad breath..I have to carry something with me so I won't gross people out! Glad you are doing good!

I was sleeved on the same day actually and I've also lost about 27lbs but I've been stalled for the last 5 days at the same weight. Does anyone know how long a stall typically lasts?

I am trying to just focus on the fact that I've been following all the instructions and slow changes are probably healthier for your body... But it's still sad to see no change when your working at it and doing all the right things...

No, haven't had pain since the 2nd week. You may wanna check with your surgeon to make sure that's ok. Everybody heals differently so it may be totally normal. Hope your pain subsides soon!

I was sleeved as well on 6/25. I had a really slow 3rd week only 2 lbs for a total of 24lbs. I'm walking an hour a day now to try and avoid a stall, I'm really hoping to hit 'ONEderland' by the end of the summer (Only 23 more pounds!) Has anyone read anything on how to avoid or break stalls?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
