I had my surgery on the 8th August and I too lost weight pre surgery and since my surgery I lost 16lbs in the first 2 weeks but for the last 2 weeks I have lost nothing and it is so discouraging as I have stuck to the plan.
Also feeling very nauseous every day
Any suggestions for the sickness?

I so appreciate having these forums and having so much feedback!! I’m 3 weeks and 3 days post op and have lost 23.4lbs. However i have been at the same weight for a week and 2 days... it’s extremely frustrating and of course I doubt myself , my actions, and my choices for having the surgery. I’m hoping this breaks and find comfort in posts form others fact experienced Lengthy stalls at the start and came out on the other side!

Me too 3 weeks and 2 days post op and I lost 13 lbs the first week but now only 2 more in the last 2 weeks. I join everyone in how frustrating that is. I keep on telling my husband...”how can I not be losing weight? I am not eating hardly anything. How is that even physically possible”. I am so very glad to see I am not alone. I have not been sleeping enough and am stressed to the max at work so I will try to get some sleep tonight and see if I can break this thing!

It was hard to get my liquids in too its STILL hard to drink Water and to drink shakes. I'm making a goal starting this week to get my Vitamins in Protein in because I have goals that I want to reach. I feel the same way its hard but there is support.

I had vsg May 15th. I’ve lost 72 lbs. however I have stalled several times for weeks at a time. Ignore the scale numbers. I’m shocked to see I’ve lost 72 lbs after ignoring scale. I’m losing weight so slow now. I do spin class 3 to 5 days a week and lift weights. I’m lucky if I loose 1lb a week. It does come off eventually.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
