I was sleeved on 7/27. I've lost about 24 lbs since surgery. 23 of that was in the first 3 weeks, my scale has been going up and down 1 lb this past week.

My starting weight was 301, day of surgery 276, current weight 252.

I was sleeved on 7/29 and am down just under 15 lbs since surgery. I lost 13.8 in the first 2 weeks and the last 10 days I've been holding steady. I have lost about 2 lbs in the last 10 days but the scale is fluctuating up and down with those 2 lbs depending on the day.

I had heard about the 3 week stall, which is what I am experiencing... but I never knew it would mess with my head so much. I am really concerned about my 1 month post op appt and what my surgeon will say when I've only lost a couple/few pounds since my 2 week post-op appt. ????

Hi, my surgery was completed on 7/31. I am down 17 pounds. But like so many of you, for the last week I've stalled,neither my weight fluctuating by a pound or so. Yes, just like others this is severely messing with my head. I've had times when I wonder have I failed or the surgery didn't "work" for me. I too am worried when I go back to my dr in 2 weeks, though at my first post op appointment he stated that everything was going good

I was sleeved 7/30. I lost 17 lbs since surgery. And yes I too have stalled. Dr was pleased with the loss when I saw him Tuesday. But it does really mess with your head. Am I getting enough water,protien,now food??

But at least we took measurements prior to surgery. I'm down a total of 14 inches!! Made me feel better. I hope now that I'm eating food I will be more regular and start losing.

I was sleeved on 7/29. SW 274 weight before surgery 268 CW 243. So I'm about 25lb down, 15 pounds was lost the 1st week after surgery. I've been stalling this last week but judging from the others post, it's completely normal. I'm not worried at all because after this month I should be cleared to work out in the gym. Good luck everyone!

I was sleeved 7/31 and have lost 17 since surgery and 34 lbs total.

YES! I was also sleeved on 7/29. I lost 21lbs the first two weeks and have stayed the same since (plus or minus 1lb). I'm worried that at my 1 month check up my surgeon will think I've not been doing my plan! I have done everything to the letter - Protein first then veggies, get my Water in, very low carbs (20 grams a day). Ugh!! I know it's the "three week stall" but it is just really playing with my emotions!

My highest weight was 371, surgery weight 324, current weight 302.

69lbs lost in total, 22lbs since surgery.

I think we just need to keep on with the plan and we'll break through!

I was sleeved on7/27. I've lost 18 lbs and I did stall for about 10 days. Yesterday the stall was broken and I dropped 1.5 lbs overnight. I am happy with my progress and know that slow and steady wins the race. Even while I was stalled I went down a size so I know my sleeve is working. Need to go shopping for new pants soon!

Slsgeek, I was sleeved 7/27 as well. Lost 18 pounds right away, but nothing for two weeks. I think I am shrinking as clothes are fitting differently, but it's so frustrating to not see a change on the scale! Perseverance is the plan I guess!

I was sleeved 7/27 sw:288 cw:268 :) 20lbs lost in 4 weeks. Had a stall in week 3. I wish I didn't wear my clothes so tight before surgery because it's gonna take time to drop sizes lol my clothes fit waaaay more comfortable now!

I was sleeved 7/27 my sw was 316. Today is 28 days post op. 4 wks im at 280. I stalled about 1 wk but dropped 5 lbs this weekend by walking alot at the zoo and aquarium. That kicked me back in line.

(My screen name says lapband cause that was the original plan. But I was sleeved 7/29/15)

So I'm 3.5 weeks post op like you!!! I was 219 day of surgery. 201.6 today. I also have been fluctuating 1-2lbs this week. Weird. I have cheated on a couple carbs! Oops. Send me a private message. Let's be friends!!!
