I know I shouldn't be mad about a stall or not seeing any changes on the scale but I am. I eat or drink at least between 500-600 cal per day and still haven't loss anything. Don't get me wrong I did lose some Water weight. Pl tell me wat I am doing wrong. The little I have already lost makes my body look good already especially at my age. But I would like to c more weight come off. Am I too impatient or is my sleeve failing me already? ????????????

I wish my energy would come back ASAP b4 my husband starts to regret this. I haven't been the same. 18 days out.

Karen Scott, regret will do us no good now. I am sure your sleeve is not failing me. I see people with 75 pounds of weight loss in 5 months and I have felt that I am not losing fast enough to be where they are in 5 months, but I have to realize that roughly 1 pound a day ain't bad. After all, I wasn't losing it that fast preop. Don't put the cart before the horse. It may be a blessing in disguise that you are losing at a slow pace. Less dramatic excess skin!!! If I am at or near my goal weight this time next year, I will be good. We have to think long term or this whole experience will get to us. Trust me, I totally understand how you feel. I am almost 2 weeks out and I was wondering why I am only 11 pounds lighter than on my surgery day. Then I realized that hey, I am only 11 days post op, that's a pound a day. So I should be down 30 pounds in a month. Not bad! Hang in there Karen. You will do fine and you will look back in a year and wonder where the weight went. LOL

Karen it will take some time to adjust . Keep up the good work . Just remember your body needs to adjust . Walk walk and keep moving .

I get B12, 6,1 and folic acid shots twice a week plus take the pill form daily it helps I feel better after the shots .

I have had the same pain for many months, and thought it was muscular from exercise. I started having very bad indigestion several months ago. I went to my doc last week and had a gallbladder ultrasound today. They called this afternoon and said its gallstones. Sad to say I hope the gallbladder scan turns out positive it can come out and I can get back to normal. The indigestion has been awful. I have had twinges in the front, but mostly all in my back.

That's what I am worried about . I stoped eating a higher fat food and started taking cranberry pills and its does not bother me to much just when I eat a avacodo tuna .

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
