I officially weigh in the 130's!! 🎊🎉✨

Right! I guess that's what the first year is all about- learning healthy habits for when the hunger strikes again. 😆

Welcome Melba! The tiredness will get better as you are able to add more solid foods. Try to eat 5 small meals that are high in protein a day. That should really help. Good luck returning to work.

Don’t ‘only’ any of your weight loss. I always say every pound you lose. It doesn’t matter how fast or slow you lose because we all lose at the rate that right for us & our body. Yes, this is likely a stall. They’re a very normal & important part of your weight loss progress and you’ll likely experience more of them. It’s the time your body takes to come to terms with the changes that have occurred (weight loss, dietary changes, etc.) & when your body resets your metabolism & the hormones that manage your hunger, satiety, digestion, etc. Stick to your plan & you’ll notice the scale moving again … it just might take up to three weeks.

I think the sleeve gives wonderful results, look at mine. I can not exercise beyond walking. Stick to your plan and you will be skinny in no time { well a year }

Yes I had this too and its tough. There are still things that I am 'over' I have gradually expanded my diet and found Thai foods are tasty to me. You will sort it out and find your way. Keep trying different foods

I have to have my foods with some kind of sauce in order for them to go down well. I would try adding sauces to make things more moist. This might help some. That being said, it did take me longer than my plan dictated to move from one texture food to another, so I agree with Sigh that you could also go back a stage for another few days/week to see if that helps your progress. Edit to add: my favorite sauce is a pan gravy where I use a broth or stock to deglaze and just pour that over what I eat.

It does get better when you’re eating more & a more real food balanced diet. But when it will happen for you ant be predicted. There’s no specific timeline. And you may find it happens randomly for a few months after too.. Mine persisted for a couple of months. I found an electrolyte drink helpful & would take one with me if I knew I would be doing a little more that day or when I’d have to be more active. (I drank hydralyte & would dilute it as I found it too sweet.) Generally look at it as a sign to take it easy while you’re healing & your body is coming to terms with the changes.

I was same and had been on blood pressure medication. That was stopped and by week 3 i started to feel alive again. Week 4 I'm flying. Be nice to yourself take it easy. Sent from my SM-A515F using BariatricPal mobile app
