My weightloss has stopped already



Recommended Posts

I'll be 3 weeks out on Monday. Surgery was done on march 25th. I lost 10 lbs on pre op diet and 15 lbs since surgery, but that's it not a pound more. I'm trying my best to get As much Protein and fluids. Just surprised its stopped already.

Anyone else around my surgery date going through this to?

No sweety.... It's too soon to say you stop losing weight. I'm sure your losing weight if you measure your self when you started this journey & now you will see a difference. Continue drinking Water & following doctors order. Stay positive & stay focus I realized now that I'm 10 months post up that the scale is only a number & if you let it get to you-you will go nuts.

Your body is in shock. A lot of people stall between 2-4 weeks out. I did at 2 weeks out and it lasted for 2 weeks. Don't stress about it....just keep doing what you're suppose to do and it will start again.

I stalled for 3 weeks when I was 3 weeks out. It freaked me out. I've noticed that whenever the scale stops moving, I seem to lose inches. I call it my body rearranging itself. I'm 8 months out and list 2 pounds in all of March. So far I've lost 8 pounds in April. Your body just needs a break to adjust. Having little stalls gives you more time for your skin to snap back. It's a good thing and perfectly normal. Totally frustrating though.

I lost 27 straight out of surgery then nothing for three weeks then started again I figured I was still swollen and healing. I don't stress out about the stalls it happens to everyone your body has to adjust this was MAJOR new plumbing .

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
