Jesse0021 when did you have your surgery? It is fustrating and I'm following what my Dr has told me, next week after my 1 month post op i get to go to the gym so I'm excited about that and hoping that the extra walking this week helps and gives me a good number.

LMarie- Congratulations on making it to ONederland. Yayyy YOU!!!

I was sleeved 9/18. I also have my follow up next week and am excited to be able to start exercising more. I haven't been great about getting my Protein in so I'm sure that's part of it.

I'm with both of you! I've been at a stall the last week!! My surgery was on the 24th and total lost since surgery is 14lbs. It's hard not to get discouraged when you hear of so many people losing 20-30 lbs.

Have you done any exercising at all? I had a slight stall and started taking longer walks... It seems to have helped... I know how difficult stalls are especially since we can eat hardly anything. I was told that our bodies go into starvation mode because of our limited calories. It does eventually straighten out and you start losing again... Try to give yourself a break and be patient... I struggle with my patience and want the weight gone yesterday! Remember we didn't put the weight on overnight so it's not going to come off overnight... You can do this!

I was sleeve 9/28 and I do a light .75 mile walk everyday. Not tough. But wanted to start somewhere. Protein really makes difference. If I get 70-80 grams in the next day I am fine 50-60. My walk is slow and I am exhausted. Good luck

Yes, I walk 2 miles everyday which takes me about 35 mins and then ride a stationary bike for another 15 mins. Yesterday I walked 30 and rode the bike 30.

I had my surgery on Sept 24th and I feel great! I can almost eat anything now. I can't eat sweets tho. 9 days out I already lost 31lbs I go back to doctor on the 28th so I'll get a current weight loss. I find myself eating a lot of cheese I don't like the Protein Shakes so I try to eat as much Protein as I can.

Well yesterday I went to my 1st month appointment, and a huge backpain. The dr sent me to the er for a ct scan as a prevemtion. There was an absess in my stomach. He did a procedurr to drain my absess but saw everything else in good shape. Then Today sent me gor a leak test. It seems I have a small leak and now need another drainage, and an stem or extem in my sleeve for the leak to be fixed and heal. Im extremely sad. All this moth everything was goi h really well. 44 pounds lost sin 2 week preop

I have pain in my left side pretty bad, feels like a knife or charley horse. My post op appt is today kinda scared. I can barely eat 1 oz and can't do any Protein shakes at all. Down 28 lbs so something is working. Glad you are doing better

Sounds like you really need to goto the dr. Don't mess around with that.
