I was sleeved on February 6th. I'm about 7 weeks out and have lost 27 pounds. I have been struggling a little lately with cravings. I gave in a couple times. I feel like I'm not losing the weight like I should be. Does anyone who had the surgery felt this way?

I was also sleeved on the 6th of February. Now that I've gotten the all clear to start introducing a normal diet I find that I have some cravings as well. I haven't given in because those stupid craving got me into this mess of bad health. I've done 7 perfect weeks of doing it all right and I'm not stopping now. You can do this too. Don't feed your head, feed your whole body good things.

I'm down 31 pounds. Doc says we're right on track. Keep up the good work!

Good luck!

Oh my yes! I was feeling the same way, to the point I actually called the dietitianat the doctors office to make sure I have not done anything to my self. She told me that you will do that. She asked me if I measured my self before, of course I forgot to do that. But I did tell her I can tell I have lost a ton of inches. She also asked me what I started (282) at and what I was the day of the surgery(250). She stated that I had lost quite a bit on my own before hand. Which is normal, she told be that it will fluctuate like this for a while, while your body is healing.

Hi, i was sleeved Jan 31, 2017. I feel as you. Total loss 38.4. 14 pre op counted in that . 2 week stall. I eat what i have been told. No more than 600 to 800 cal. I eas told i should be at 900. Trying to eat every 2 to 3 hours. It's got to come off but after surgery i lost more than 1 lb a day. I think our bodys are like "wait a minute you lost alot of weight quickly, so slow down" LOL. Weight loss is a science that our bodies listen to, not us. Lol

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
