Hi everyone!

Tomorrow I'm going in for my 2 week post-op follow up appointment with my surgeon. The first week when I was weighed at his office, I lost 9 pounds. I weighed myself at home tonight, and it looks like I only lost 2 pounds this week.

Is this normal? I feel discouraged. I've been watching what I've been eating- at least I believe so.

Totally normal. It will pick up again. Busy trying to catch up.

9lbs in one week??? Holy moly!! That's awesome!!! Good for you!! :D

I am having a similar issue.

I had my surgery on June 18th. My weight was 260 on the day of surgery.

The following Thursday June 25th I weighed at 246. Down 14 lbs in one week.

Since then I have only weighed on Thursdays.

July 2nd weight: 244

July 9th weight: 242

Is this normal? I feel like the scale has just stopped moving. I am following all of the instructions of my Nut. Getting in my Protein and as much Water as Steve my Sleeve will hold...

I was just about to post a similar question. I was sleeved on June 24th and lost 30 lb total... About 15 before the sleeve, and then 15 in the week and a half after. At 1.5 weeks, I started adding puréed foods to my meal options and all of a sudden I am not losing anymore. Not a pound in about 5 days. Bummer. Hope the body starts shedding the weight again.

Keep our chins up everyone! With as little calories we are taking in, it has to keep going down. Our body has to adjust and will have it's moments. Remember this is a marathon, not a sprint.

I had surgery on the 18th, I'm at a stall right now too. I was at 280 day of surgery, first week I lost 14lbs second week I was at 262. And I've hung out at 262lbs since last Thursday. I'm just staying calm about things.

@@TexasGirl86, if you are not sure then make sure you track your foods. Hang in there everyone it fluctuates week to week and there will be stops and starts but look at what you have accomplished so far. It will come just be patient and follow your plans! Good luck!!
