Congratulations on the losing of 48lbs! That is so awesome!:( I also had my surgery in October but I've only lost a total of about 30lbs. It's good but at the same time it's sad because I haven't lost any more weight since November.:scared2: It's really starting to bum me out. Any words of advice or encouragement? I could really use some help here. If not that's ok, too. Again congrats and keep up the good work!:)

That's awesome! Color me jealous! Sounds like you're off to an incredible start!

I was banded on 1/9 and since surgery have lost 7 lbs. I did lose 13 on the pre-surgery diet though. :scared2:

Congratulations and best of luck to you!!!

Hey Spudgirl, I was banded om 10/13. I just hit 40 pounds today. I have been drinking about 80 oz of Water a day and it's really helped. I think I lost about 5 lbs in just the last week and a half. Switch up your routine a bit. Change your diet, exercise or Water intake a little and see what happens. Good luck! :thumbdown:

I am extremely excited and anxious to get this done. I have been in the process since May of last year, I am finally glad thats its about to be done. Wish me luck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
