I had gastric sleeve surgery 10 months ago and I’ve only lost 29 lbs. I still have 100lbs to go. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Meeting with your Surgeon... ASAP

I agree - meet with your surgeon. People lose at all different rates, but 29 lbs in 10 months is very low. Are you logging what you eat? Are you following your plan religiously? I'd definitely start by meeting with my medical team.

Something wrong definitely.

I lost the 20lbs in my first 7 days.

I agree with above all of them - Call the Doc

Also if you can meet with a Nutritionist Hire one, I do not follow any barbaric plan concerning food schedule, I with doctor approval started this journey once i got my head out of my Ass to simply get healthy. Wieght loss was second to my health! I have found it can be broken down really simple. I do not care about the 500 page plans and all the other marketing behind dieting it comes down to this flash card!

Calories IN must be way less then calories out! = equals weight loss

Carbs in/ sugar intake = discomfort and stalls in weight loss or gain

Healthy in = Healthy feeling and healthy weigh loss

Since there is not a chance in hell i am going to us a App or log or anything like that, Just a typical lazy male, i focused on intake in the healthiest way possible. It worked for me

I would hope she's been like most of us and had 1,2,3, and 6 month post-op appointments.

I was wondering the same thing! What did the doc say at your follow up apts?

I stay away from carbs, and sugar. I'm walking an average of 4.5 miles a day.

If it is too cold outside, I go to Walmart if I have to, to get my walking in.

I've lost almost 20lbs and I'm 3 weeks post op.

How are y'all adding the signature weight progress? I love it!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
