Hi Jenny! I had surgery on 9/10, starting weight 261 day of surgery 250 today 219. Just remember everybody is different with the amount of weight that is lost. I was discouraged last week because I had been in a stall for two weeks. Then I had to realize that no the scale wasn't moving but I was wearing clothes I haven't been able to wear in years. Keep motivated and know that u are doing awesome

Praying for you remember he did not bring you this far to leave you,.. Nope you were not built to break and you won't!!! Hold on to Gods unchanging hands

Congratulations and Happy Birthday. I noticed that you have not experienced any stalls..what's your secret?

Congratulations on your decision to have the sleeve!~ I am now 8 weeks out and this is the best thing I have ever done for myself... About the stall...my doctor told me for weeks 3 and 4 most people experience a stall. (In other words, it is completely normal to not have any weight loss during those weeks because your body is still recovering from a big loss the first two weeks). Sounds like you are doing everything right just keep doing it and it will eventually start back. I an in another stall now and have been for almost two weeks but I keep eating right and going to the gym because i know eventually it will change... You can do it

Congrats you are off to an awesome start! Wishing you continued success on your journey

Wow what a transformation you are doing awesome!!!!

Congratulations Proud Granny!!! I promise I won't tell anyone... You kicked butt and I can't wait to get under 200

Quianna sorry you are having some complications and pray you start to feel better soon! I took 5 weeks off from work and to be honest I started feeling much better after the 1st week back! The 1 st couple of days were hard and long but now I have been back to work 3 weeks and I am much much better! Wishing you continued success

Aussie how exciting that you both will be taking this journey together! I am now 8 weeks post op and I have to be honest and tell you the first week was my worst. It is normal because you are having major surgery but there are some people who have no problems. My hunger immediately went away and so did my high blood pressure. I couldn't keep anything down the first day. My taste ifs changed drastically after surgery too. I had to make sure my back was up while sleeping and truly the advice on this site is what helped!!! Make sure to walk walk walk and walk Take some dry mouth spray Take an extension cord Sip sip and sip your liquids If you do those things you will be fine and the best of success to you and your hubbie!

Congratulations on the approval! I will always remember the day I was approved... Best of success on your journey

Congratulations! Can't wait to be there...

Congratulations on your success so far!!!

Great question great advice!! Everyone is right don't stock up your taste buds are going to be different.

Imaginemeskinny please speak with your doctor about your travel plans. I am 2 months out now but my surgery was 2 and 1/2 hours from my home and my doctor required me to stay in a hotel local for 3 days after my surgery... Blood clots are a big concern and to be on the safe side check with your doctor to make sure it will be okay

Congratulations and you were a beautiful bride! Nice pictures and may God continually bless your union

Pinktink I am also 7 weeks post op it will be 8 weeks on tomorrow!!! I am experiencing the same thing!!! 42 pounds lost total no weight loss the last week... Maybe we are experiencing another stall. Just keep doing right and the weight will continue to come off

Wow that was rude!!! I don't know why so many people think that having weightloss surgery is the easy way out because it isn't. Heck it is no wear near easy!!! Keep your head up and don't let what she said get you upset because it you did what was best for YOU and so did everyone else here....

Congratulations Stacey! You will be just fine you are experiencing the dreaded 3 and 4 week stall. It is completely normal and the same thing happened to me. I am almost 2 months out and only wish I had this surgery years ago!!! It is a hard journey that will be will worth it... Keep going stay motivated and accept that their will be stalls along the way. Wishing you the best

Hello everyone! I was sleeved on September 10th which puts me 7 weeks out. I have lost 40 pounds in 9 weeks and I am do happy! Today is my birthday and I am looking forward to many more with my sleeve. This procedure changed my life in a positive way and I thank God for it! This birthday I felt healthy and normal for once in a very long time!!!! I am looking forward to the rest of my life

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Altagirl Happy Birthday!

Congratulations

You have to pay all copy's prior to the surgery. I had to pay over 900 to the doctor and 1200 to the hospital. I saved for months and it was a sacrifice but now at 6 weeks out I can say it was worth it

I am having the same problem!!! Glad to know I am not the only one... I actually scrape my tongue several times a day because of it
