I agree also. I was sleeved on 10/22 and lost 30 pounds in 2 weeks and haven't dropped a pound since. It's frustrating but I'm wondering if I'm not doing enough.. I'm 4 weeks post op.

Miss ann r u working out I was like that too my fist 2 weeks I lost 31 pounds but I am now on week 7 and I am stuck on 250 I want to at least loose that 50 pounds more I walk and jog everyday and I go to Zumba class when I can and maybe my scale is lying to me it's driving me crazy but u have to work out a lot to me that's the key. My cousin did it 8 months ago and she lost 119 pounds and she hardly exercise and it's driving me crazy

My experience I just had mine 9/30/2013 and I thought I would be in a lot of pain when I got home but I was not I came out the hospital 2 days after I was feeling great started walking ASAP the doctor will make sure u are stapled really good I chose this doctor because my cousin did it with him 8 months ago I am just on week 7 so if u are sure about your doctor I don't think you should worry

I did just walking my first doctor visit was last week so the doctor told me I can fully exercise now so I would say 6 weeks after but u can walk right out the hospital actually they make you walk at the hospital

I walked the first 2 weeks but that was to get rid of the gas pains...they kept me up all night!!! But now I feel tired so I barely get any exercise or my fluids in. I'm good with my Protein tho!

awesome well i had a c-section done so if it close to that i can handle it.. im just anxious i want it to come and go... as far as the post op how was the liquid diet and headache or anything did your body act well with that?

As someone who is new to this...if you never had surgery before the gas pains are evil!! As for my new tummy it is DEFINITELY a learning experience. I cried and wanted to ask for my stomach back but it has gotten better with time

I felt really great after a lot of pain when u wake up but they give u meds to ease the pain the hospital was really great I did mine at in New York. U will be fine I still do my protien shake too and I really eat once a day in between I do you gut and crystal light I still throw up at times which happens to everyone don't worry too much just pray alot
