And have only lost 49lbs since my surgery and 59lbs from my highest weight in the beginning the weight was coming off fast but now I feel like I am only loosing about maybe 2-3 pounds a week. I an having my 10 year High School reunion on June 28th and I am trying to get another 10lbs off by then. Any suggestions on what I can do to get these 10lbs off any jump start my weight loose again. And I am having a hard time getting all my recommended Protein . Protein powders make me sick to the stomach any ideas on what else I can drink to get my protein in?Help I need help

Boy I wish I was losing that much! I had my surgery 3/14 and have list 44 pounds total... But recently I've only been losing 1/2 pound each week if that...sadly I'm still 60 pounds from goal so it's going to be a long haul unless something drastically changes.

I did alot of walking in the beginning and I go to the gym 2 times a week now. I do alot of walking now too. Maybe You should up your activity.

So the Hair loss DOES stop at some point, right?? I've been losing so much these last few weeks and I really don't want to lose any more because I will end up bald! Lol.

Hey sleevie wonder, how are you going? My hair has just started to come out. I have lost tolerance to the shakes for about three weeks so I dont know if that is part of the reason. My chair at work was covered, I just brushed the Wookie off and put it in the bin before anyone could see, yuk. I am glad it is temporary.

Hi, I hear you there, I started noticing Hair loss about a week ago. :( I've heard it lasts about two months but I sure hope not or I'll be bald too.

My hair is thin, but I have (had) a lot of it. Now every time I get up from the computer or my beadwork table I'm cleaning up strands. Hope it slows down ... I've been pretty careful about my protein... But if it all falls out I'll get a couple of wigs. Hair loss is nothing compared to feeling so good.

Fingers crossed, my hair is hanging in there. I keep a short bob and I wonder if that may cause less stress on the follicles. I've always taken Biotin and I keep getting my 60 grams of Protein. I've got a little hair to spare, but I still keep an eye on the bottom of my shower.....

I've been getting 60-G protein since day 3 postop, take all my supplements, including biotin. I'm believing if it's gonna happen it will.....seems like I did everything possible & still happened :(

I've decided I'm going to cut mine short as well. Right now it's pretty long, at least halfway down my back and now that it's thinning out it doesn't look too good.

My haircut will be planned for when I reach 199lbs though! Gotta keep then goals going lol. ~30lbs to go. Hoping by August.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
