I haven't been getting enough either. Water has been giving me heartburn. I don't know why, but it makes it hard to drink it. I have been drinking hot herb tea & Sobe Life water. It helps, but I know it's not enough.

I make sure to start the day with 16 ounces of hot herbal tea. Two cups before Breakfast.< /p>

Still no weight loss. One positive thing though is that before the surgery I would have given up if I didn't see any progress. Now I can't give up! :)

I know brandy. It is so hard and frustrating. I felt embarrassed to tell my family I have stopped loosing. But please listen to me. It will start again. Im 5 weeks and stalled the last 2 weeks and just started loosing again. Lost 4# in 2 days. It's so hard to hang in there but it will start again. I promise. Hugs.

That's my problem. I lost 23lbs right away but since my post-op follow-up appointment I'm stuck!!! Like super stuck! NOTHING! as a matter of fact I gained a few ounces. :( I'm not getting all of my fluids. I'm just really feeling like I'm failing my sleeve.

At least we know it is not just us. I keep telling myself "It has to work... It has to work... It has to work!"

Well ladies, stay positive. Easier said than done but hey, we're in this together. I lost 14# pre-op and I'm 4 weeks out and have lost only 11#s. My PA told me to look at the overall pic, not these days or this week. After seeing it her way, I'm doing 5#s a week which is insane :) Don't give up, we have no choice! It will work out....we don't wanna be looking sick losing too fast, ya know! Hang in there :)

Wow! You have already come so far!! Congratulations on your weight loss so far. Everyone is different & our bodies behave differently, and yes, you might be in a stall, but you'll get out of it. You have already come so far...be proud of that. Keep working the program and more weight will come off. You got this!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
