I was sleeved the same day as you and am in the same boat! I stepped on the scale and was like what is going on? Apparently it is a common time for a stall and it is perfectly normal.

This is uncanny! And your stall atart d in the se week as well. Maybe it is normal after all.

My surgeons office said it was very normal. It can be as early as 2 weeks or as later but apparently 3rd week is super common.

The stall is HARD! I've been on these forums for months before I had my surgery so I feel really prepared. I knew stalls would happen, but now that it's here, it's hard not to mentally beat myself up or question what I've been doing. I'm so grateful for these forums!

I had gastric sleeve surgery March 2021. I had food stuck at the stomach opening and ended up at the er and then an endoscopy was done at midnight. Don’t want to do that ever again.

Hi - I am new to the site. My sleeve surgery is scheduled for March 10th. Anyone else here set for March? I am super anxious but also looking forward to it. I had a lap band in 2009 and a slip in 2014 that required removal. Curious as to what your pre-op diet looks like. I am on partial liquids now and full liquids for two weeks before the surgery.
Nice to meet everyone!

I just had mine on the 29

OMG - May I ask was it something you ate that you shouldn't have? or was it the opening of your stomach was small? That must have been so scary - I am sorry you went through that.

I am down 57! I know we're not supposed to compare ourselves, but it was reassuring to know someone else is just in step with me! Congratulations on your loss!

How is everyone doing? Sadly, my hunger has come back much quicker than expected as have my cravings for carbs and I am HUNGRY! I simply make sure I have Protein close by or veggies or fruit. It is difficult some days. I had my yearly physical yesterday and my primary care said she was concerned I was loosing to much weight too fast. Just curious what everyone else is experiencing. I do find I am following exactly what my dr and dietician recommended.

Had my surgery on 3/31 and as of today I am down 68.2lbs. I have struggled with finding food terribly appealing and get full fast. I have carbs now and again but find I get full even faster that way and I know they are empty calories so I keep it limited

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
