what if I dont lose weight?



Recommended Posts

So I let my SO look at some of the threads on here and he came across one talking about what are people eating post op.. he then made a good point to me and said "you ate this way before your surgery"...he wasnt trying to put me down because he is my biggest supporter but now I'm wondering what if I dont lose weight. I was sleeved on May 23rd and before surgery I usually ate 1000-1200 calories per day (1400 when we went out) I also exercised 5-6 days per week. Was anyone else like me who lived a very healthy lifestyle, had all the tests and still couldnt lose weight? What is your success like post op?

I was so scared I was going to fail at this, like all my other efforts to lose weight. The sleeve is a very powerful tool to help you. As long as you follow the eating plan set by your dr and nutritionist you will lose. Some weeks will be more than others, and sometimes you will stall for a while. But if you keep at it you will be successful this time. Go for it girl, it will change your life. :)

I had that issue. I play soccer 3 days a week, do tkd 4 days a week, krav maga 2 days a week before surgery. I now added running a 5k 3 days a week. I started with needing to lose 80lbs - surgery was dec 13th and I have lost 58 lbs!! I have never stalled more than a week and a half. I am way ahead of my dr predictions - I think because I am so active. It jas been awesome. Bad part - I keep going thru cloths.

You will do great! Follow the meal plan anf stay active!

I'm with you. I've always eaten healthy and excercised. When I tried the trendy diets I never lost like everyone else did. I weigh 190. I'm down from 205 since being sleeved May 15th. I have to eat Protein or I DO NOT lose. I can't do the creamy Soups bcuz there full of carbs. My body is used of healthy foods and I find the first few weeks we are allowed to eat stuff that I wouldn't normally eat.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
