Just walking. I'm not yet 2 weeks post-op & I wanted to wait until my first doctors visit. I was afraid of pulling something.

To give you some perspective, I was sleeved on July 9th and have only lost 23 pounds. You haven't stalled at all. Your body is now going to start losing fat.

Dont rely on the scale, weight loss is a very complex thing, and the body can hold back other things that have mass, and therefore weight. It is entirely possible to lose inches, actually typical, and the scale not move much at all.

Get a tshirt and a pair of long shorts or tights - get them purposefully too tight - very snug. Try them on about once a week or so, you will see the inches coming off.

Good luck.
