Got sleeved on May 9th and have only lost 2 lbs since! Not panicking though! From what I have read, I am not the only one who is facing this. Hopefully, things will turn around soon!



On the bright side, I am easily able to take 70-80 gms of Protein everyday! Getting better everyday. Couple of incisions hurt still but but not too much. I have not had to take any pain killers after day 4 of surgery.



Anyone that had an early stall, please feel free to holler! Thanks.

I stalled after 4 weeks for almost three weeks. No worries. You'll get going again!

I'm stalled now after two weeks, and no loss since then--maddening! I'm so glad it's common though, and so keeps me from feeling panicked. I still hate it though and it's kind of depressing. We WILL lose though! ...eventually...

I'm right there with you all. 3 weeks out and only down 9 lbs. I eat nothing but Protein, no carbs, and walk 30 minutes a day. I average about 500 calories per day at the most. What gives? Starting to resent all the posts where people lose 20+ in the first week. LOL!

Amen to that! I want to be on THAT losing plan! I've lost about twenty since surgery (once I dumped that hospital fluids) and nothing for almost a week now. I'm eating exactly to plan with mushy stuff, Protein first, a small amt of carbs, teeny Amy of fat and all between 600 and 700 calories. I walk 7000 steps a day (about three miles) and aim for 5 flights of stairs a day. My dog is ecstatic, but I'm wiped out.

Sure would love to break this stall. Here's to hoping for all of us!

I am experiencing the same thing. I was sleeved on 4/21. The first 3 weeks I lost 15 lbs. Over the last week I have not lost any. I have been reading blogs and see that a lot of people experience it. With only taking in 700-800 calories a day, why a stall? It can be nerve wracking and makes me wonder if I am doing something wrong. But I feel you just have to give it time.

I am 2.5 weeks out and haven't lost anything in a week! Even though I know it will happen it is very frustrating to have it happen so soon after surgery. Sort of thought I'd have a month of weight melting off while I was taking in so little.

Thank goodness for these remarks by everyone. I had my surgery on 5/12/14 and came home 10 lbs heavier than when I went into surgery. I have since lost all of that plus some. I'm down 21 lbs. from when I started this whole thing. Yay!! I would do this again. Looking forward to losing more pounds. I just need to stop weighing every single day. I'm addicted to my scale.

Stalls are normal. I stalled 3 times in the first 4 mos. now I tend to not lose for 2 weeks, then drop (In the beginning 10-15lbs.) 5-7lbs. quickly and the cycle repeats.

HW: 335

Entered program: 312

SW 9/11/13: 297

Today 5/24/14: 194

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
