If your in a slow down (stahl) it will pass it is normal. Stay the course and it will come.

Hey everyone. Just a quick update. I am 4 weeks post op. My high at pre op diet was 228.9. Weight at surgery was 222.2. My 4 weeks post op weight is 202.4. A total of 26.5 lbs lost. So happy about it. I thought it would have been more than that. In 4 weeks I lost 19.8 lbs. Is this about average? Where was everyone else at, at 4 weeks post op?

I hope not. I started with the lap band in 2012. Starting weight was 261 lowest 174. Then had lots of problems. Went back up to 228.9. Had it removed then did the sleeve. Love it so far. It seems like I lost faster with the band, but as long as I am losing I am good.

We all lose differently. I have lost 17 lbs post-op, after 29 lbs lost pre-op. I was sleeved 10/7.

I was sleeved on 10/6. Have lost 28 lbs at 1 month out. But 9 was pre-op, so around 19 in a month. We are about the same!

Turkey, green Beans. And I saw a bariatric menu for Thanksgiving and it had an appetizer that I think I'll make: Apple Brie Bacon Crumbles on a toothpick. You put a piece of Apple, them the cheese, then bacon pieces. I think it sounds good!

Amboyd,

I too was a band to sleeve revision on 10/5. I stalled for nearly three weeks even though I was walking nearly every day for about 30 min and calorie intake no more than 800 a day. I was very frustrated to say the least! (I even noticed a two pound gain during that stall) I have my next four week check up is tomorrow and I'm not getting on my scale until I have been weighed by the surgeons office scale.

My husband had not seen me since surgery until this past friday and he could tell I had lost weight, and I for the first time could see it too. So hang in there, I think because we are revisions our starting weight loss is slower.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
