Why can't I loose weight? I thought this would happen after surgery?? What am I doing wrong?

Your body chem is just reacting to the surgery. Going into protection mode. You WILL lose weight. Just keep at the water and walk, walk ,walk. Make sure your getting your protein in. Most of all.......be kind to yourself...you've just been through a huge surgery. Believe me you will start losing.

Walk, walk, walk, sip, sip, sip and as my Psych says "trust your plan". When things get rough and the stalls happen, trust your plan because as long as you are following the plan set up by your surgeon, nutritionist, psych, pcp, etc, the plan won't fail you. The sleeve will work.

Also measure yourself immediately. You may see a drop in inches even before a drop in the scale. Most importantly, you will lose weight, our bodies have to right themselves after the major surgery and change in habits that we have put them through.
