It's been since June 19 since I had my surgery, I have stayed at 25-30 lbs loss since then. I'm very discouraged, but I won't give up. I'm not able to work out much do to other problems. I started high Protein today, with very few carbs to try to kick start this again! Don't give up!

Don't give up we all lose differently. 20#s is amazing, losing at a slower pace is better.

I have not lost any weight in a few weeks, if I do it comes right back on! I need some new ideas!

I'm a newbie and would also like a buddy. Surgery on 10/11/12 and I'm so uncomfortable. I keep getting myself upset thinking something is wrong with me! Non-stop belching is exhausting! Could the whey Protein be reacting differently since the operation? I've been in really good spirits-lost over 20 lbs. on Pre-op, but the hiatal hernia was fixed with sleeve and now I really feel awful!

Yes, the Protein will do that to you. Everything is different after having the sleeve done!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
