Yes, I know what you mean. I am going to start to gauge what amount triggers that.

Hi I was sleeved 9/22 so I am almost a month out and I have lost 21 lbs since surgery. Still a little sore under my left rib, but I wear a light compression support belt. That helps. I am trying new foods and find that eating is not so eventful when you can only take a few bites.

That is also my first sign. If a small burp doesn't move it. It's definitely time for me to stop. I also get a runny nose.

Hi everyone! I was sleeved 9/26. Had lost 14lbs that first week and NOTHING since. The last couple of weeks have been hard as there was a death in the family that meant we had to travel out of state - and stay with family I had not told about my surgery. So I'm wondering if it's a normal adjustment or if trying to work with what they provided killed my potential. How are you all doing?

What have you been eating, and how has your Protein been? I was sleeved 9/15 and just hit the 40lb mark but I am 5'10 so it's obviously coming off me faster than others. If you're following your plan I think it's way too early to be concerned.

Great job on 40 lbs gone!

Since I haven't had much control over what food is available , I've done my best trying low sugar premade Protein shakes from the corner stores and cutting skin off of fried chicken etc. It was nearly impossible to track, so I opted not to drive myself insane. I'm doing my best to get back into a grove now that we're home. I'm hoping the scale will start moving soon!

Thank you! I'm sure once you get home and can break the bad vaca habits you'll do better. Just be very careful not to spring a leak! I just tried chicken today. Protein Bars, string cheese, etc. are your friends when you don't know what food is available.

Hey September Sleevers just checking in. It's great to see updates from everyone. I was sleeve on 9/29 and thankfully have had a very smooth few weeks. I even went back to work on my 5th day post op I felt so well. Glad to report I am 42# down since start of my pre-op diet 09/19 and 28# since surgery. I'm on soft foods for another week and then I will hopefully get cleared to start on normal foods. I look forward to seeing everyone's continued progress.
