How much did you lose 2 months post-op? What was your starting weight?

I was 8 weeks this past Thursday. I've lost 59.8 pounds. 28 were preop. I started at 325 although I know I was higher than that before seeking treatment (prob 330-335). I feel good. Just getting into the flow of exercise again. Still struggle with fatigue at times, especially with exercise. But I'm finding I stall without doing at least something physical. Losses seem to come in spurts, even though I'm basically at same calories/proteins/carbs everyday. No regrets. Sometimes I feel like a slow loser. 101 more to get to goal.

Really it's only 31 in 2 months. I started my 3 month (turned into 6 month) preop journey. I lost more than average preop. And I didn't do a 2 week liquid preop either. I think sometimes my post op is slower than I think it should be because I lost a lot pre. I still have so far to go. I try not to look at it except on the daily level. One day at a time. That's all I can do.

I have no doubt you will keep losing. My sister lost 50 the first three months and the it got slow but she has lost 85 in 10 months that's so crazy!!!

I've been on a diet and I have only lost 12 pounds in 7 months .... Can't wait to get sleeved!!!!

Being sleeved is so much different than a diet although it is a lot of work. It's a tool that you have to choose to use. But it works when you use it. I have no regrets. Feels so good to wake up in the morning these days. Wish I had done it sooner. Good luck to you!

At two months out I had lost 20 pounds. I had gone through two long stalls. I've now decided that it's going to come off. I am using my sleeve as the tool it was designed for. I am losing slowly, however, losing non the less. It's a beautiful journey. Sit back and enjoy!

Happy Losing,

Mississippi Girl

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
