Well today made my 5th week out and my experienced today' date=' everything I ate or drank felt like it was stuck and a few minutes later I would spit up thick white mucus, therefore I phoned my surgeon office around 7pm and I received a return call, instructing me to go to the hospital's outpatient unit where I will receive lots of fluids, toradol for pain, and blood work, my nurse said I was experiencing stomach spasms, he said I will receive treatment for 3 to 4 hours for 4 days, until my stomach relaxes and after that I should be fine, God is my help...[/quote']

Feel better soon and keep us posted!

I had surgery June 25' date=' lost 20lbs the first two weeks, then nothing! I read somewhere on here that some people had similar issues and once they could eat more, like 100-200cals per day more, the weight started coming off. I am now trying to eat on a regar basis, every couple hours just so I can get in more than 850cals. I feel like I am force feeding myself. My nutritionist said that getting in 850cals is appropriate for my stage. But somehow, it just doesn't seem right. I'm not hungry either but I exercise every other day for 60mins. If anyone else has any input, I am all ears!![/quote']

My surgery was the 26th and I have also lost 20 lbs. this week nada! The only thing making this bearable is fitting into clothes that were too tight three weeks ago! I don't see the nut till aug 17 for my next meal plan. Technically that is almost three weeks later than what I should be, but was her next available.

I look at stalls and plateaus like this - the slower I lose, the less loose skin (maybe). LOL #MYsilverlining

I'm nearly 3 weeks out & I have stalled. The scale actually said I gained back 2 lbs. How the Hell do you gain on this??? I don't feel bad hearing I'm not alone.

This happened to me recently. I realized the gain was die to Water retention related to my cycle. About a week later I lost what I had gained plus some. Hang in there, stick to the plan, it WILL happen!

surgery date 6/11/13 HW: 364lbs. SW: 335.5 CW: 308 GW: 150

Just went out to Water the shrubs. It's so hot I almost soaked myself with the hose in the front yard. I really miss chugging icy cold water. : (

      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? 🤷‍♀️
