Week 2 no weight loss?!

[baribetty 165]

I have been careful not to weigh myself unless at the doctors office. This weekend I was at my in laws and stepped on their scales out of curiosity, and at first one of the two scales said I had gained 1.7 pounds and the second said I had lost .5 a pound. I thought, this has to be wrong! But now it’s eating at me. How could I not lose weight on week two, eating liquids and purees?!

Hi there

Panic not! They pump so much liquid into you during surgery that many people gain a few pounds. Stick to your plan and I promise you, it will start to drop away soon.....

Same exact thing happened to me. I know this doesn’t sound logical, but when I started drinking all 64 oz of fluids per day, the weight started to decrease again. Also, it helps me to stay at around 800 calories per day and make certain to get 60 grams of Protein.

Hang in there!

I'm in the same boat! Sleeved 5/9

I lost 2 pounds a day for first 7 days, then nothing for the last week.

Hanging in there, but it's frustrating. I was hoping for a little bit more at the beginning to keep me motivated.

I am in this same boat now. I lost 10lbs the first week, gained 2lbs back, and have been stalled for the last 6 days.

How long did it take before the weight loss started again for you guys? I am hoping that this is just the famous 3 week stall early!

I am in Oregon too. I had my sleeve done at Good Samaritan Hospital. The care there was excellent.
