I'm in the exact same spot! I've been the same weight for 2 weeks. Down 20lbs. Surgery was 5/2. It's frustrating.

I had my surgery in kuala lumpur. I am 4weeks out since 5/5 gastric sleeve surgery with low bmi 34..

The doctor dont have follow up plan.

Im so confused what to eat and what not eat. I asked the Dr. And he said i should consult with dietician. The dietician give me glucerna milk which i dont quite like the taste is soooo sweeettt. And im not diabetic at all.

I lost 5kg for the post op 1st week liquid and stall until now.

2nd week not eating well mostly just drink Soups and Water. I drink any Soups and little bit of Protein drink which i barely cant finish it in 100ml.

So i dont know much calorie i took for a day and i dont know what to do.

The 3rd week i jumped into solid like beef and chicken and fish.

About 50grams per meal. Poached and steam. Sometimes i chewed and i throw it out without swallow it.

I feel so discourage and i feel so terrible as the scale doesnt move at all for the past 3weeks. So I stop taking Vitamins and even worst i dont eat regularly. No Breakfast. Messy schedule. No meal plan. I feel so hopeless

The doctor only precribed controloc for 2months and never recommend me any Vitamins. But i do learn from youtube so i took Multivitamins, caltrate d600, Biotin GNC, B12 GNC.

I found this bariatricpal and i wish there is someone who can help me. Perhaps going through the same like me.

I had my one month appointment today. I'm down 22 lbs. I haven't lost weight in a week and a half. This could be a stall but I'm not sure yet. So now it's on to soft foods but I'm not sure I'm ready to give up my smoothies. My doctor wants me down to 1 smoothie a day.

Apparently there's a dreaded third week stall that happens to a lot of folks. You'll start to lose again soon, just stick to the plan :) Also I heard that many don't lose a ton of weight the first month because their body is still in shock/ healing.

Congratulations!

Yes, almost everyone experiences a stall about three weeks after surgery.

Just follow your program. Focus on getting in all of your Protein and fluids, take your Vitamins and supplements as directed, and exercise when cleared.

I'm not sure why they didn't give you a meal plan. Try contacting the doctor again. On line are some get resources for each stage. You should be on pureed or soft foods at this point. Check with your doctor or another bariatric clinic in your area to see if you can get a better idea of what stage you at because each doctor is different.

      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
