Early Plateau: Is something wrong?



Recommended Posts

Im right there with you. I was sleeved on 6/22. I've lost 17 lbs since surgery date and have been stuck at 200.6 since last Tuesday. I'm not eating more than 600 cal per day. I know it will come off soon. It is frustrating though. It will make it appear a little more natural though since I'm not telling a lot of folks that I had wls.
Maybe our bodies are a little in shock from so few calories.

My surgery was on June 7th. I lost 10 pounds pre surgery and 10 pounds since. But, this week the scale hasn't moved at all. I am journaling my food and being pretty strict on calories (like less than 700 a day. I can't really eat more than that). Plus, I have kicked my walking up a notch. But the scale is not budging. The only thing I know that is not helping is I still pretty constipated and have to take DulcoEase every second day just to go. I still have some side pain so I take the pain meds at night. That is still messing with my regularity, I know.
I am terrified that I spent all this money, worked so hard to stick to the plan...what if this doesn't work for me?

I feel the same way! I had my surgery 6/22/17 and I lost 25 pounds and follow a precise eating pattern. I am constantly on you tube looking at others who had surgery and trying to see how much weight they lost, what they did that I'm not doing etc.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
