Only 35Lbs Down And Able To Eat Too Much :-(

Surgery was July 17. I see others losing sooo much more while I am already stalling. I know I shouldn't be comparing but I am so frustrated. I also know 35lbs is a lot and wouldn't have lost it without the sleeve... guess I'm just expecting too much.

If your not able to tolerate water - I was told this happens and I have the same issue. I put cukes, citrus, a table spoon on cranberry or pomegranate juice in it, drink unsweet teas, and crystal light. I thought there was something wrong with me. My surgeon said it happened sometimes and that it would change over time. I also have intolerance for sickly sweet. I have been drinking the isopure protein rtd which I am able to get down easier than the milkshake kind. I tried the unflavored unjury protein and it smelled so bad i couldn't tolerate it. I'm not sure if it was bad or if it is all like that.

I had my surgery the day before you, lost about the same as you and I feel like

it's a nice amount of weight lost. I stalled for a couple weeks, ate a little more carbs/calories and voila! the scale moved-- but that's controversial and my opinion only.

If you're doing the Protein, Water and whatever else the doctor said to you you can only go down.

^^^ This. Your body may be going into starvation mode if you are not getting enough fuel. Sleeved or not this will happen. I have had to up my intake several times to break a stall a few times.
