November sleevers here

[BusyMom945 63]

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and you all are doing well! The new year is about to start and what are some of your New Years Resolution?!

I was thinking about my New Years Resolution and I think I would really like to go to the beach, I havent been in years, and I would really like to just feel somewhat comfortable in a bathing suit again.

Have a wonderful day!

I had my sleeve put in 11/6/17 I have lost 32lbs but it seems to be hanging on for life. I am eating approx. 600 calories a day. Taking my supplements. I guess I didn't put it on over night and it's not coming off overnight. Also wish I would have done this year's ago I'm 62 and waisted time with a bad hand for 8 years.

Great idea, @BusyMom945!

My New Years Resolutions are:

• to consume a minimum of 60 grams of Protein per day
• to learn how to sip my Water slowly
• to get to 240 lbs by Feb 28
• to work out a minimum of 3 times per week at the gym
• to pay off three of my credit cards by end of 2018

Feeling like I lost a lot of weight very quickly, and now it's a slow crawl. I had my surgery on 11/20--anyone else experience this?

Yes! I was sleeved 11/21 and I lost 29lbs quickly. But for almost two weeks now I haven’t lost a thing. I’m doing everything I’m supposed to do. But, so many people on here and in my support group say this is perfectly normal and can last a few weeks and to try not to be discouraged. So, I’m trying, haha, and just working the plan. Hope that helps!

IT SO DOES! Ha! Thank you! I know about stalling, but it's been like... three weeks. Harumph.

We've got this though

I stopped losing for 2 weeks about 4 weeks after my rny surgery and then miraculously started to lose weight again. It's pretty normal. These stalls are pretty normal.

This makes me feel better. I lost 30 lbs in the first month and then it slowed down and then stopped for over a week. I hit 6 weeks out this week and just had my first loss in over a week today. I know it’s normal but damn is it frustrating to live through.

Truth,it is frustrating! But we have to remember it's not a race. We will all get there. Best of luck on your weight loss journey

I'm so glad I read this. I'm at 5 weeks and am stuck, too. Now I don't feel so alone. The people that know about my surgery keep asking me "well, how much have you lost now," and I just tell them I'm not weighing right now..... :-)

I had my surgery on the 27th of November as well and I am down a little over 20 lbs and I am stalling right now too, it is very frustrating! Let me know if you start losing weight faster after you incorporate working out. I am only allowed to be walking for now, I am trying to walk everyday but still at a stall.

[Desert Dad 3]

Same exact thing here, lost 24 pounds quickly, then nothing for 2 weeks. It's comforting to know that it's apparently very common.
