Sleeved on 12/17 and down SEVEN pounds. Reviewed diet and exercise with doc today and I am not doing anything "wrong.". It's just my stupid-slow metabolism.

Dec 14 down 20lbs.

Y'all need to remember that some stalls are due to not enough intake to where the body goes into starvation mode and becomes defensive about letting go of anything. Try try and keep trying to get your required intake of protein.

Sleeved Dec 30,2011

Starting weight 253

crrent weight 193

Pre-op weight = 294

Pre-op day (1wk of liquid) = 278

Post-op last weigh in 12/31 = 264.4

You did really good on your pre op wt loss! Keep up the good work. Tomorrow I'll be a week post op but so far only lost 5.4-5.6

Lbs since surgery. I'm ready to see some bigger numbers

This is my first post so I have to start somewhere. :) From my highest weight the week before surgery (12/3) to today, I have lost 58 lbs! The week of liquids before surgery took care of 22 lbs but I have been super excited to have lost so much the first month. Even though I still have quite a bit to lose, I'm optimistic.

The number one thing I have made sure to do is WALK everyday! Today I did 3.56miles. I am finding I am super hungry (probably due to high calorie burn). I

am doing three shakes a day and get to start weight training tomorrow (2wks post-op, only allowed to loft up to 25lbs for next month). I am also doing creamy Soups (strained). And K2O Water Protein mixes.

I am trying to keep the weight loss momentum moving forward (praying for no stalls!).

You will get there! Just takes focus and movement.

Good luck :)

Not as fast as I'd like, but it's still going in the right direction.

Once again, we get conflicting info from our doctors...not one standard answer...I was told NOT to lift anything heavier than 20 lbs (in every day life) and absolutely no weight lifting until the beginning of February (end of January/end of 6 week period). Walking yes. Weights no.

Down 7 lbs since being sleeved 12/27.

Every doctor is different. My advise is to follow YOUR physicians recommendations. My doctor has sleeved many former professional athletes (myself one) and has had huge success with them. He (my doc) also has a much more rigorous nutrition plan than most, but the results are incredible.

I only shared what I am doing because people have asked. I am not suggesting that anyone lift weights unless specifically directed to do so by his/her doctor. I am suggesting WALK. Everyone can walk to get started on excellerating the process.

Sleeved on 12/4 with a preop weight (no pre-op diet) of 239.9 and today I was 209. I had my lap band removed and the sleeve done. I had about a 1 week stall when I advanced to real food.

14 lbs here since surgery 36 total

Sleeved 12/13/12 starting to get worried down 18 3 wks out from surgery. How many calories are you all taking in? 24lbs since pre op.. But seems slower than you all. What could I be doing wrong?
