Hi, I had surgery 12/17 in that first week I lost 20 pounds. This second week I have just gained and lost the same 2 pounds, I'm ending week 2 higher than I ended week 1. Is this normal?

I had RNY on the same day. I'm doing the same thing. I think I will only weigh once a month. Everybody goes through this.

You lost a lot of weight like me before surgery. I think that might also effect the post op losses. ( just a guess)

there is always post op gain due to the amount of gas and liquids they fill you with during surgery. It took me a week or so to get back to surgery weight from all i was pumped with. I gained 15 pounds just from surgery.. but as of this morning i am down a total of 50.2.. 7 weeks post op..

you will also hit stalls. I have hit 2 so far.. and i am only 7 weeks out. It is your body catching up to you. My first one lasted 8 days and my second one just ended 2 days ago and lasted 4 days.

Just remember, it is a constant work of progress. You will constantly plan, replan, and try to change how you are doing things for at least the next few months until you have your own system in place. Good Luck on your journey!

12/17 sleeve. I’m down 14 lbs. Lost in the first 10 days and nothing since! Going to post op visit tomorrow. With all the liquids I’m sure I’m getting around 600 calories but not losing. Why?????

      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? 🤷‍♀️
