Cebbert... go towards the front of this post and look for the 2 people who are the admins for the FB page. You need to send one of them a private message through here with your FB name and description of your profile pic just so they will have the right person. We are trying to be sure we add the right people as we won't it to be a small group of just Feb people.

Hey guys! I just got sleeved on 2/25 in Guatemala! I'm feeling fine most of the time, but I feel a bit hungry, especially when others around me are eating normal food. I've also become quite fed up with all of this soup/protein drink crap! It all tastes gross, which has sort of made me lose my appetite. Then again, maybe I'm a bit biased (I'm a chef). Anyhow, would love to be a part of the Facebook group and have a chance to hear more about what you guys are going through!

Sleeved on February 9... Down 20 pounds and the last 3 days been in a stall. I'm wicked annoyed. Am I eating too much? I feel like I could eat a steak dinner. I'm doing great! No complaints at all. What am I doing wrong? I'm eating yogurt, cottage cheese and Soup. That's it! I do have hunger pains... I feel like I am starving sometimes!

I also had my surgery on the 9th, I stalled last week too for a few days so I stopped weighing myself every day - only once a week now and I am losing steadily every week. My total weight loss is 36 lbs, 19 lbs since surgery (as of last Friday!) Which means I am averaging a pound a day!

Also - make sure you are drinking at least 64 ounces of Water every day - that is important for weight loss and will help keep you feeling full.

Hi, sleeves 2/11 lost 10 pounds in the first week. Seriously upset though bc the scale hasn't budged in a week. I do have a hard time getting in enough fluids and Protein but I am walking 30 min every day on top of my normal housework. I have zero heartburn or difficulty getting my soft foods in. But for example yesterday was an egg w cheese a babybel cheese and a half a piece of cod but I was so full I couldn't look at anything else. Is my body that stubborn it won't kick the weight off? Aside from not being hungry I'm wondering why I did this! I just feel alone bc all my husband can say is "I don't know you're beautiful anyway" ... While I adore is answer I just wonder if I'm alone out there ... Sorry for the rant just very frustrated this morning

Just keep at it! A weight loss stall is normal around 3 weeks. Make sure you are getting at least 64 ounces of Water in every day. It is important to keep you kidneys healthy with all the protein you are taking in and is important to help with weight loss. I have to sip water constantly throughout the day to get it in and in the first week after surgery I actually set the alarm on my phone to go off every 5 minutes to remind myself to sip something.

Maybe try journaling every day to help with your emotions and to help remember why you did this. Your lifelong health benefits by having this done and losing weight are priceless! I hope things are better for you this week.

It could be from all the fluids they pumped in as well as the gas. I would do some walking. I would think it would come off rather quickly. Good luck!

      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... :(
