Hey everyone this is my first post I'm post op from 6-27-17 so I'm just a couple weeks out from having a sleeve. I'm 32 years old and my starting weight was at 380lbs in April 2017 and lost down to 317lbs on the day of surgery as of now I'm 300lbs I'm just looking for any advice that you all have that might get me through this 3rd week stall that I keep reading about thanks everyone.

Stay consist with your diet, make sure you are getting in the proper amount of water per day. I know right now getting in fluids especially water can be a struggle but you have to. And make sure you are walking. I can not stress enough how important walking right now will be for you. Come with the knowledge that your body will stall from time to time but as long as you keep doing the things your doctor has outlined for you, that you will keep losing weight. And some weeks the loss gains will be better than other weeks.

Congratulations on your loss so far. I would say to follow the rules you were given. That is so important. Also if you have access to a nutritionist who specializes in bariatrics, that can be very helpful. I have seen mine for over 15 months and consider her to be a huge help and motivator. I would also read and start planning your phases so you move through them with ease and confidence. You are just beginning there is so much to learn and a lot of work to do. But this time you have a new powerful tool. You can do this.
