I'm not losing weight...I had surgery July 14th,,,I've lost 21 lbs since surgery 1 month and 2 weeks ago but I haven't lost weight and people say after surgery you lose 10lbs a month....when is this supposed to happen?? I'm stressing out. I'm super restricted. Idk what to do at this point...I see everyone talking about losing 7-10 lbs a month and I'm almost at the two month mark and no weight loss in like 3 weeks...

@joann454, what is your diet like a day? and your exercise routine?

i'm just not losing anything since like 2 weeks post surgery and so it's been minimum 3 weeks with no weight loss.
It just really sucks...

Do you have monthly meetings with your nutritionist? That has helped me a lot with ensuring I know exactly what to eat and how much. It also helps me to be able to ask them "is this normal" questions. Like, why do i not lose weight for 2-3 weeks then Bam, a huge weight loss week 4. Or why is it some days I feel totally restrictive and then other days I feel I can eat like a normal person. Totally normal on both accounts for bariatric patients. Just keep making sure you are getting your protein in, little to no carbs, drink lots of water, avoid slider foods and caffeine. I've lost a total of 74 pounds since May 2nd. I've learned on the weeks when the scale doesn't move, to just be patient. It will eventually.

I've lost 32 lbs since surgery. The 14th makes 2 months post op. I think i'm doing pretty well. I was super frustrated and stuck in a 3 week stall at the time I wrote that. It's slowly coming off. I don't have a nutritionist but I do know I need to be better about getting more protein in and drinking more fluids and walking. @cuzzy623

Glad to hear your stall broke! 32 lbs is really good. Congrats

@jmar23 Thank youu!!

U got this!!! [emoji4]

At 2 months out most plans have you at 600 calories and focused on getting in all your protein and liquids. Don't try and advance too quickly. Everyone loses at a different rate and there unfortunately will be stalls along the way. It's very common to stall at 2 weeks and then again at 2 months as your body adjusts. You might want to check out the obesityhelp forums. There's not as much random advice.
