Got sleeved 10/24. HW 226, SW 209, CW 194. Lost 12 lbs since surgery. Can only eat soft foods. Stopped eating the carb Soups bc I felt like it was slowing my weight loss down. I started walking on the treadmill 3 days post op. Trying to get more Water and Protein in. Ate chicken breast and threw up. Gonna take it slow with meat and stick with a soft diet, up the exercise, try to get 60 grams of Protein in and hopefully keep dropping the lbs. I was losing 1-2 lbs per day the first week and a half, this week I gained and lost the same pound.

My highest weight was 220lbs. Day of surgery on 11/11/2015 was 212. My current weight is 153.6 and stuck! My surgeon said I would be at my lowest at 135 -140. But I am far from that. Trying to take some things out of my edit to see if that helps ( I love PB SO going to cut back on that)

One thing I do is log my daily intake -- the app is MyNetDairy. I Start my day with premier Protein shake( vanilla, Carmel or chocolate) . lunch I have good Protein chicken , Shrimp and today tuna. Supper varies( spaghetti meat/ sauce, chicken grilled, couple of bites of steak , Shrimp are my usually options). I get 60-70 gem of Proteins a day no matter what. My snack cashews, PB, fruit, carrots , no add sugar fudgecicle. Water intake 65-80 oz a day. My total calorie a day is 900. I was walking several times a but with the time change it is to dark after work. I have joined a gym but have not gone. I have to do better there just wish I buddy here to go with with. Makes me more account. I know my doctor said when you start increasing activity you have to increase calories but I would have not done that much. Good luck and I hope this helps.

My surgery weight was 209. Current weight is 188. I was sleeved 10/12. I stalled for 3 weeks. I got to 195 and just sat there. When I brought it to my surgeon he said stalls will happen but 3 weeks are unusual. I've upped my Fluid intake and Protein and started to jog. Lost 5 pounds in 4 days.

It gets easier as you go. When I was on soft foods the scale did not budge. Now the way my personality is set up I am super impatient. With that being said my middle name is STALL....lol 3week, 6,week,11week, and was in the 170'since sept5 just got into the 160's about7days ago... In my mind I would be 145 in 6months, the reality is as much as I want this to be a race it is not...ughh took me years to get over 200, but I expect to be under 150 in months...Human nature . hw 226,sw212,cw167,first goal weight around 145

I am still pureed food. So struggling with what to eat. Soups have sooooo many calories and carbs

How many Protein grams are you getting daily? Are you adding Protein to your soups? You can eat ricotta cheese, mashed cottage cheese, yogurt, refried Beans...you can add unflavored protein to all of those. I haven't even looked at calories, but I started above your weight and have lost 68 lbs eating at least 80g protein daily, lots of Water and walking at least 30 mins 5 days/week. I'm 40-ish pounds from goal and although my weigh loss is slowing a bit, it's still coming off. Good luck, I can't imagine how frustrating it must be to not get the rapid weight loss most of us do.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
