I was sleeved July 8ths and I'm down 35 pounds which I thought was slow then I looked at my before and after pics, and what I haven't seen on the scale I've made up for in inches. Just gotta keep working.

Great update! I think that maybe the issue with me. I haven't lost any weight this week, but my clothes tell another story.

Sleeved July 12.

Starting weight: 254

Surgery Day: 245

Current (8/27): 223

I was feeling like it was too slow. I was relieved to read that this seems pretty normal.

We just have to remember it's not a sprint. It is a marathon and we can do this!

July 29 was my WLS date and including pre op I have lost 52 pounds. 32lbs on pre op the rest by sleeve. It's not a race don't give up.

I was sleeved on July 8th & I lost 37 lbs i since surname total including pre-op diet & 29 lbs

I had my surgery July 8th & I have lost 37 lbs in total including pre-op diet & 29 lbs since surgery... I don't know if I'm considered to be a slow loser but I'm certainly proud of my results... I don't count my inches but I have lost a lot of them...

Sleeved 7/10 and now down 33# including 2 week preop diet! Scale was stuck at 27 for the longest but started moving again last week. : )

Ugh I was doing so good. I was down 34lbs and now I have hit a stall and am up 2lbs. I haven't been eating anything different and I have no idea why I am up. 2lbs! This is my second stall and I am trying super hard not to get discouraged because I know this stall will pass too. But, it is aggravating to see my weight not only not move but actually go up! :(

Time of the month? 2 pounds is likely Fluid since you're eating nothing different. Trust yourself and it will resolve itself!

Great update! I haven't weight this week. I was skewed on July 29th.

So was I....

I was sleeved July 11 and down 44 lbs

I was sleeved in July 18. I am down 60 pounds today. I have hit a stall, no movement in a week and half. Any ideas?

I have just ended my period. I got the shot for the first time and bled for a month straight and it just ended yesterday. So I am not sure if he has to do with the hormones. I also recently started using Miralax and my mom told me that it causes you to hold more Water in your colon so maybe that is what it is... I really hope this ends soon and that I don't go up any higher.
