4 weeks post op and i've only lost 12lbs



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery April 14th - my weight was 251 that morning and as of this morning it's only 239

I haven't cheated at all and I've been logging my food religiously. I feel I had a easier time losing weight before the surgery!!

OK - I know i'm just freaking out -Talk me down.

April 14th was three weeks ago, and you probably have had the infamous stall, so ... you've lost nearly a stone in two weeks. Way to go you! Onwards and downwards!

I miscounted - you're right it was 3 weeks. Thanks for the encouragement. YOU look fab, by the way.

I agree, I think you've lost weight and your body has cheerfully decided this is quite enough and is giving you a royal 3 week stall. Just stay positive and stay on plan. It will pass, although it may a take a few weeks. Also measure yourself - you may be losing inches, just not pounds.

At 3 weeks I had lost like 10...now I'm 6 weeks and have lost 24 (since surgery date). I started at a high weight too,

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
