Has anyone been feeling depressed and weak? Im so tired and depressed all the time. Lost 19 pounds in almost four weeks after surgery and none in the last week.

Ur tired because ur not eating as much as before so the body is lacking nutrients, 19 lbs is better than 0, depressed because this is a total life change and we were able to eat whatever and whenever but don't be, give it time, u'll lose then stop then even gain but don't stop! Ur going to be fine and fabulous! Good thoughts, only good thoughts and b4 u know it, ur shopping cuz ur pants too big or ur bra don't hold ur boobies, u start to notice ur neck bones, ppl will ask of u've lost weight but u won't feel or see it for a few months baby girl... I'm 1 year post and 120 lbs down, depressed, hungry,annoyed but mostly hungry, lol don't feel 100% but look sooooo much better and shopping is so much easier... Take ur time but don't let depression get the best of u, to be honest, it'll slow ur weight loss....u have no idea the life change u have just made but like everything else, it takes time, I'll pray for u as I do for all my sleeve buddies! I don't care who says this is easy, this has been the hardest thing I've done in my life and I'm 35, I be starving and hating on ppl who eat everything but I look great and my self esteem is so much higher! I promise the same for u, now smile, take a deep breath, drink some Water, walk around da block a few times and know, everything is gonna be alright! :-)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
