How much weight have you lost thus far?

I was sleeved 13/12/12 and I've lost only about 40-45 lbs so far. I am jumping around from 175-180 for the last month and a half now. Has anyone been in the same range for such a long time?! I also have been having quick, sharp pains in my left abdomen and ribs the last few days. Has anyone else experienced that??

Yes!! Me to! In wondering if it could be scar tissue pain? I don't know!

I was dec 3 and I've been stuck at 163-165 for the last five weeks:(

Me too. I had surgery on 12/18 and I get the same pain on my left side. I thought it was the scars for a while (from the incisions, they are still sore). I just read all about the size of our stomachs. OMG they are small! I don't think I am eating very much but I have been stuck for a few weeks. I need to keep a more accurate log of what I eat.

I was stuck at 175 FOREVER!!!!! And have recently started the pains in my side! randomly

No idea what left side pains could be about. Right side pain could be gall bladder which is often an issue with periods of reduced fat intake.

I am experiencing some pains in my mid stomach area too. I am going to make an appointment to have it checked out Not sure what it is but at times it leaves me hunched over and in so much pain.. I hope its not my colon .. thats all I could think of..

I had the same issue. Got a cat scan nothing. Turned out to be gastritis. I went on omaprazole 20g daily. By day 4 I was 70% better.

Good luck

Yesterday I hit month 4 post op. I have lost 73 pounds so far. My weight-loss has been slowing down significantly. I was loosing 3 pounds a week for 2 months straight. this week I lost 1.6 lbs. last week 2.4. I have not been watching my food lately so I'm guessing that's it. Hopefully by next week I will be back on track. Writing down what you are eating is very important!

Look at you' date=' 91 pounds down!!! Great job, and congratulations![/quote']

Thank you, I am feeling so much better...so nice to be living life instead of watching from the couch.

I just bought a smart phone. Any suggestions on phone apps that track carbs/calories?

Thanks in advance

You are going great. I've hit my 4 month mark, and I'm only down 45 pounds. I've hit a lot of stalls, which are very frustrating......
