I'm a little over 2 weeks but I lost about 20 pounds. Feeling good for the most part.

@@megnun21 I'll be 2 weeks out tomorrow. I'm not even bothering tracking weight loss at this point - we had a lot of swelling and Water retention from the IVs and weight can fluctuate up and down drastically during this time. Concentrate on getting plenty of fluids (at least 64 ozs) and meeting your Protein goals. Don't restrict foods - eat as your plan suggests! There's no way to compare your progress with anyone else. We all lose at different rates - and have different amounts to lose. Just keep doing what you're supposed to be doing - the weight will come off. It's not a race.

exactly what KristenLe said! but if it makes you feel better - in the first two weeks I lost...NOTHING not even a tenth of a pound. Now at 4.5months out, I'm down 70lbs. So everyone loses differently but if you follow your plan, you will lose.

Heidi Kat. ... I have been stressing about not losing anything over the past two weeks and being concerned it would be a marker for after surgery. So glad to see your success. On the the next two weeks of liquids.< /p>

I stayed the same for about 10 days I think. My body is a fan of Water retention. ^^

I am two weeks out from sleeve. I was 202 day of surgery and 196 today. I was a bit bummed but getting compliments so I measured myself instead and I'm down 2 inches each in chest, hips, thighs. As a low bmi I was told to expect to lose half my 70 pound (surgeon goal) in six months. 35/6 is only 6 pounds per month. Better than I've done for years!! Just need to not be hard on myself and put the scale away. It's a bigger temptation than food. As for skin, I've added a Gummy hair, skin, nails supplement. Adding weight training as soon as cleared for exercise. Muscle behind skin matters to where the skin "belongs".

Yes. Me too. Was sleeved on 10/19 and my hosp weight was 388. I'm 370 now. 11/2 will be 2 weeks exactly. I did. Cheat at times and was shocked by how hungry I would get. But I am back on track and may extend my liquid diet another week to see if I can get down to 350

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
