I had my surgery June 21st ... I started weighting 243 and lost down to 228. Today has been 10 days out and havnt lost nothing. I weight myself this past Friday and the number is still the same.

You've still lost 15 lbs in about 9 days.

The body needs to adjust to the surgery, recovery and weight loss.

You may not see the numbers go down every day.

I weigh myself once a week with hopes of seeing the number on the scale move.

I stopped losing for an entire month shortly after surgery. It's normal when your body looses so much so quickly.

I just broke a post-op stall today (fingers crossed that the number doesn't go up tomorrow!) - I started stalling about 10 days post-op and today is day 23. Regardless, my clothes ARE looser - even my boyfriend commented on my loose pants today! Our bodies are adjusting and things will change...slowly but surely. Try not to be frustrated and keep to the plan - it WILL work!

Again and again I must say....throw that @&$£*^€ scale away! Hehe. You shouldn't be weighing all the time in the beginning. It drives you crazy. :)

Just measure yourself...and look to your clothes for the answer. If they are looser and your measurements are smaller, then you are losing. When you are exchanging fat for muscle the scale may not move, but you are getting smaller anyways. Before I got heavy I weighed 150, didn't work out so I had a lot of fat....and I was a size 10. Now I am 170 and I am a size 10.... Why? Because I have more muscle then I did back then. It takes up less space so you can be smaller and weigh more. The scale sucks! Hehe ;)

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
