Late December Sleevers?

6 day stall after GAINING 3 lbs on day 7 post op. I posted before and people say this happens, but I’m still feeling super bummed. I’m exactly two weeks out and have lost only 7 lbs since surgery.

I’ve had anxiety and depression in the past but have been clear for about two years and I am worried about such a biological change triggering that to come back. Anyway, I know what anxiety feels like so I can understand how you feel. Relax. This seems like a great move and safe operation with a couple months of discomfort for a lifetime of skinny living. I’m excited. Are you too?

I had my Sleeve surgery on 12/12 and I feel like my depression has been lifted some, the thought that I'm losing weight and I might end up feeling like a completely different person is exciting! I do still worry about my success but I'm just in the beginning stages of this process. I go to my follow up appointment tomorrow! Looking forward to being released to exercise with weights!

I’m about the same as you. Very disappointed. Going for my two week appointment tomorrow.

Tried my chewable vitamins today. I got so nauseated I am not sure how I am going to get them down. Anyone else having issues with this?

I got nauseated with my first chewable too. Now I just take a small bite, slowly chew, wait a minute or two, then take another small nibble. Takes longer but doesn't make me sick.

Thanks I will try this!

I've been taking mine for a week and still get a little nauseated. This morning I tried chewing the calcium citrate tablet 30 times like I'm supposed to with some food and that helped a little. Tonight I'm going to try taking the Calcium citrate tablet 2 hours before the Flintstones chewables, taking all 3 at once was making me really sick.

Mine we fine for two weeks, now all of a sudden they make me extremely nauseous and sick for like 30 minutes. I’m just going to start taking them in the afternoon, so at least if I’m sick I won’t be at work :( It really sucks.

Bariatric Pal offers vitamin patches or you can try the liquid vitamins. I think Walgreens or CVS may carry them. I hope you get some relief.

I was but then switched over to Ollie brand (at Target). Taste like a Gummy bear, delicious and I'm familiar with the company, very high quality. No issues at all - I look forward to taking them.

Me too - surgery on 12/29 lost 16lbs first 5 days (!) but scale has been frozen for last 7 days until this am, and up 1 lb. VERY discouraging.

If I drink too much or too fast, it hits me in the gut like a ton of bricks! Try to get down what you can.

Sip sip sip

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
