I started out my journey in January weighing 287. The day before my surgery I weighed 268. I am exactly one month post op and I weigh 249. I've not even lost 20lbs and I haven't lost a pound in almost a week. Anyone else had a stall in weight loss at one month post op and what did you do to jump start it back?

Any suggestions would be helpful.

I was in a stall for almost 2 months, it started 3 weeks after surgery. I changed up my diet and work out routine. I started to eat more calories and carbs and decreased my time at the gym but I'm slowly increasing that back up.

I hit a stall for a week (week 3 post), lost a couple of pounds and it looks like I have hit another stall. Today I am 5 weeks 1 day out....

I am 6 weeks post op today and i have been stalled for about 2 and a half weeks. I adjusted my Protein and decreased my carbs and i finally have broke my stall. Its sad to me that i still have to "diet" hard core with carb intake but this is just how my body is. I cannot eat carbs in a normal quantitiy because I will gain weight. I just got to roll with the punches. Good Luck :)

Tomorrow I will be post op 2 weeks out (I was sleeved on May 29th). I'm on purée foods and average about 500 calories a day. I'm working on increasing my Water intake (I've been averaging about 40 oz. a day- I know I need 64 oz.) While I was on the clear liquid diet the first 5 days, I dropped 10 pounds. But, since then for about a week I've lost nothing. I go for walks but didn't want to push my activity too much since I'm healing. Am I doing something wrong?

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
