We are surgery twins! Also had surgery 11/15/19..I have hit a couple plateaus along the way but I’m still continuing to lose, just maybe not as fast as I thought I would. I lost 22 lbs in the first month after surgery but that has slowed down since then. My surgeon says I should expect to lose about 10 lbs a month from now on...just hang in there! And keep following the plan

There is an entire slow loser club here at this forum that you don’t hear from as much. People are way more likely to post good news than bad.

I too am a slow loser but will not give up the fight :)

I need to join this too!

I had surgery 11 dec 2019 so just coming up to 4wks post op. Lost 13lb in first two weeks now not lost anything in last week and half. Feel like I am failing so frustrating.

do a search on the "three week stall". Happens to almost everyone. Stick to your plan and the stall will eventually break. I promise.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
