Hallelujah, it's finally happening!

I had my WLS on August 23rd and was not losing any weight. Pre Op I was 311 and stalled for about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks out with minimal weight loss. It was the weirdest thing, almost over night I started having great progress and am now at 291. So, for anyone out there who is experiencing what I did, have faith! this will also happen for you. There is a lot of great advice and good people on this forum, listen to them.

I am so glad you posted this. I had my vsg on 9/12/16 and haven't lost anything. I feel as if I have done this surgery in vain but everyone keeps telling me it Will happen and that I'm still healing. It's definable you frustrating when you see other losing weight in couple of days after surgery. Thanks for posting

I was definitely frustrated the first two weeks, when you start to feel better you will realize just how out of whack your body was after surgery. Remember that they fill you with gas and fluids, not to mention all the antibiotics. Follow your meal plan and you should be just fine, if you need support feel free to email me.
