How long is the stall going to last? Is it because I'm eating solid food now?.. I only been in the potty for 3 times after surgery =/ I'm ready frustrated.. idk what to do =(

Mine lasted a little over a week. Try to get all your fluids in because that's what helped me through it. Don't get frustrated like I did because I even gained a few pounds. The scale will start moving again.

I was sleeved may 3rd. I'm on my 2nd stall. Its hard not to get discouraged. I've only lost 19.5 since surgery. I know that's still good but I just want my scale to move. Even if its a pound a week!

I was sleeved 05.08.13 and have lost 26 lbs, but alot was lost first 2 weeks. I am losing about 1-2 lbs a week and my doc said that is so normal. States will pick back up around 3 months out. I'm very happy with my loss and try to stay focused on making the healthiest choices a habit. The weight will take care of itself.

So happy to see that I'm not the only one who has gained weight on 600 calories a day. I was sleeved 28 May and had lost 32lbs since pre op diet but then I stalled and put on 5lbs last week. It made me very anxious and depressed but feeling a little better now. Roll on the end of this stall so I can get happy on the scales again! Lol.

I wanted to say I got some excellent advice when I was told to measure myself as well as weigh because you'll lose inches when you don't lose pounds. In the past five days I lost one pound and I lost 6 3/4 inches. That made me very happy!!!

So I went to the doctor yesterday and he took me off my diabetic meds and one of my blood pressure meds! I'm so excited!

@ pixie....way to go!!!!!

Thanks! looks like we all are doing wonderful!!!

I'm near St. Louis in Illinois. My surgery is not scheduled but should be mid to end of May. My surgeon is Dr. Kumaran through New Start. I'm so excited and nervous!

You are the first person I have seen who has the same surgeon as me. I just found out Friday I was approved, so I am assuming you are way ahead of me. When was your surgery? How are you doing? Any complications? Love to hear how things are going!
