I have seen a few posts like yours, so you are not alone!

Hard to say what is up with you without a bit more detail - has it been a week, a month? Is it a brief stall and will come right? How’s your eating and exercise? Are you nearly at your goal? etc etc.

But one suggestion is to haul out your post surgery papers (or look here in the food/nutrition pages) and give yourself a refresher by repeating your post surgery eating weeks - pouch/sleeve “training” my surgeon calls it. So you will go back to liquids with Protein, then move on to purée - get that protein in and Vitamins, and 8 glasses of Water. And as you move into solids, keep a good record of what you are eating...

Keep us posted? This is a great community for advice and support!

Four months out and I haven't lost weight in three weeks. I'm not panicking as my goal was to get healthier and get off my daily regime of 10 medications. To date I'm down to only two medications and my blood sugar, BP,gout,snoring while sleeping and Gerd all got better. I'm eating better but much less and though I exercise I'm sure I could do more. Overall I'm happy with my progress.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
