I was sleeved on 5/22. I've lost about 48lbs some of which was lost during pre op diet. Is this normal? I just feel like I should have lost more at this point. I'm feeling really disappointed today.

Normal is whatever your body allows - 48 lbs?! You are a ROCK STAR! Sounds like you are well on your way to a new life! I'm envious of your loss, so you should be celebrating that!

That sounds very good...I'm in my mobile, so I don't see stats in your ticker and am not sure how much the "some" was that you lost pre-op, but considering you are 3 weeks out, being down 48 pounds seems very encouraging.

48 lbs in the past 3-5 weeks and you're "disappointed"...?

What in the heck has happened to us as a society to where this could even be remotely considered something to be "disappointed" about?

I'm disappointed that you feel disappointed about this instead of celebrating your new healthier life.

Chin up, buttercup - it only gets better!

      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! 😞
