Lap Band gone sleeve done today!

So far pretty good seems my scales have stalled and only eating about 500-600 calories a day mostly protein not getting the 60oz of fluid I should but getting 40-50 everyday. 7 weeks postop and down 33lbs. -
I am having the same problem I am 7 weeks out and down 33lbs and the let 2 weeks no change in weight very frustrating and I am only rating about 500-600 calories a day. Feel like I am failing but my dr did not say I would loose at a slower pace from band to sleeve. Hoping those scales start moving again soon.

I don't know but my dr puts a drain in as a precaution to watch for infection or leakage my band was tough to come out so I have one big incision about 4-5 inches -

Absolutely I feel like the band created many issues for me . Progress was great at first and then Things started falling apart.
