YAY!!! I am so glad I went through with this surgery! :)

I was sleeved on September 10 pre op I was 293 and post op I was 273. Last week I I was 264 and my current weight is 270. Is it normal to gain weight back even when sticking to the diet? I'm feeling really discourage right now and I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

July 29th here. Surgery day was 188# as of Thur I'm 158#. Never gotten sick, but I do way too much liquid Protein still.

Need to get back to real food.

Sleeved on july 18, 2013 started at 321 lbs. I am currently 10 wks & 4 days PO & weigh as of today 278 lbs!!!! Glad to see everyone doing so well!!! Keep up the great progress!!!!

Are you ummm... going to the bathroom? Constipation can make you gain temporarily.

Hello,

I'm 5'3"

I hope that everyone sleeved in July keeps up the good work on loosing weight. Take care.

My New Journey 2013

Sleeved July 25th (2 days to 10 week mark, this Wed) and 23.8lbs down w/ 52.6 to go. Stalled from week 3 to week 7. Started losing weight week 8. Down 5lbs in the last two weeks. So I'd say, weight loss is super super slow! I'm barely even making a crawl.

However, I'm down inches like no ones business. Down from a super tight/uncomfortable size 18 skinny jeans in waist to a super loose size 14, and a perfect fit size 12! Not bad my friends...not bad at all! My thighs didn't really need much, but those are tiny too. My legs are super muscular calves of sexyness (they sort of always were...but now...DAMN). My arms are down, my bra size is down 2 cups, however my band remain's the same (bra rolls anyone lol). My face! OH MY FACE I TELL YA! So slim. No double chin in sight. And sooooooo slim with all that natural contouring in my cheek/hollows etc. Nice!

So I'd trade inches over lbs any day! :)

I just hope to keep dropping the inches like this forever! HAHA!

No not really I've been constipated.

Are u working out? Sometimes it is muscle.

July 11 I am down 55 lbs and counting. Things have slowed down However still in the right direction.

If you are following your eating plan, then a few things could account for the gain - Fluid retention; muscle gain if exercising; and/or PMS/hormones. Have you measured?? I had a frustrating "gain" week; not sure of reason; but I measured & was down a number of inches. Don't be discouraged, just keep doing what you are supposed to do. The scale will move.
