8/25/17 sleeve updates

I wanted to have a thread for the several of us with the same surgery date. How are you all doing? We are about 10 days out. I've lost about 20 lbs, but the vast majority was from the liquid diet Pre-surgery. I have a few more liquid diet days and then have 2 weeks blender food starting Friday. I feel pretty good. Still tired a bit and my stomach still is black and blue and a little swollen. Other than that I'm fine. How are you guys?

I had mine same day progressing nicely. I lost almost 30 prior to surgery so in doing pretty well. Shakes are annoying me at this point seems like everything you have is sweet. Just dying for a little salt lol

It wasn't. There is really no mention about low sodium in the instructions I got. I know everyone has there own issues, but since we are having so little at a time, I imagine the sodium is also a smaller portion. Good luck!!

Hi everyone, wanted to check in again. I'm feeling much better. Tomorrow is 2 weeks. My only weird thing is that I'm losing no weight! I lost about 20 lbs on the Pre-surg liquid diet and I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to be doing since then. Everyone says to be patient, but not even a lb. frustrating. Are you all dropping the lbs?

Remember ur not moving that much and ur healing plus they load you up with air/gas. You wont drop much in first 2 weeks so dont be alarmed i only dropped a few myself and todays 2 weeks as well. As long as you are feeling good. Then u can start adding the gym and im sure it will come off.

Well here is another update. Moving a lot now. Still no weight loss. I'm concerned my metabolism has met my 600 calorie per day intake. I'm hoping it's just an endless plateau, but it feels so unfair. I have not cheated. I'm exactly doing what I'm supposed to. Back to work on Monday. I hope you all are doing better.

I was sleeved on 08-31-17
I am on clear liquids I am down 30 pounds including the preop diet.
Only down 5 pounds since surgery.
I am a little concerned as some of the others have said.

Same boat as you - surgery was 8/24 and I stopped losing about a week ago. I'm tired, kinda cranky and not losing weight...can't wait for this stage to end. Good luck!
