Hi guys

A little advice please. Was sleeved 3/22/12. Since then lost 83 pounds. Everyone stressed I lost too much too soon. All bloods are perfectly normal and doc says will slow down when good and ready. It has slowed to about 1.8 pound a week.

Anyone else had similar experience.

Hi

I have lost 88 pounds since 13 March 2012 but I dont by any stretch of the imagination think it is to fast.In fact it feels like it has slowed down to a snails trail and I find it very frustrating.

I still have 40 pounds to lose.So for me it wasnt too fast.

How much do you still have to lose?

What was your surgery weight? What is your weight now? I think it really depends on how much you need to lose. Those who are heavier will lose more weight pretty quickly as oppossed to those who 'only' need to lose around 60-80. How do YOU feel?

You weight lose sounds great, I on the other hand have lost 50.4 pound since 4/11/12. The docs are happy but he tels me not to worry about the weight lost because the goal that I want should be reached in a year. He tells everyone the weight gain did not happen over night. So look at your inches and the weight on thescale make sure that you are eating health beause it helps with the changes. This way you would not put the pounds back on.

Good luck on your journey

I was sleeved 3/19 and have lost 83 which is only about half of what I need to lose. I think it will slow down as you get closer to goal weight. Have you added exercise into your schedule?

      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! 😞
