I didn't even finish reading your post before responding. Stop getting on the scale. The Sleeve is a tool that you will use from now on. We all have stalls, I've lost 35 pounds total in 21/2 months. Things will turn around as long as you follow the plan. Don't talk yourself into being unhappy with your sleeve. It will work for you as long as you work with it. You didn't gain all your weight in 3 or 4 months and you're not going to loose it in that amount Of time either. Good things will happen soon..... And make sure you post when it does!

Good Luck!

Great post! Congrats on achieving your goal and the baby!

I know you can do it! And if you can do it I can too! Congrats on your accomplishments.

Nope! Go for it.

You look awesome!

It took me 2 or 3 weeks to lay flat. Laying down made me feel like i was drowning. However every couple of day i could lay a bit lower. 5 weeks out and back to normal. Good luck!

Boost may have to much sugar in it as well. I know my dietician told me no more than 8g of sugar at a time. She said it would produce a dumping like feeling that you're describing.

Just try... Do as much as you can today and go a little bit further tomorrow.

I'm a MI sleever had my surgery done in Detroit by Dr Edelman and Dr Jacquline. Great bed side manner. Hospital staff excellent @ Harper Hospital. Sleeved 10/29 @ 245.5 today 219. Weight loss not fast but steady.

You look amazing. Your spirit seems lifted as well. I hope you're enjoying the new you!

Gaining is ok because it tells you that you're not giving your body what it needs. Try some protein and more water. You may even need to up your calories. Same thing happen to me, two days after my protein increase I lost 3 pounds. Try something different it what your doing isn't working. The weight will come off.

I take Biotin everyday to prevent hair loss.

Hello everyone... I was sleeved Oct 29th. Things are going pretty good. Surgery weight 248, current weight 222. Things have really slowed down for me, I've been 222 for two weeks. I think my metabolism has stopped because of my protein intake or lack there of. So today I started back on the Atkins shakes. Hopefully things start moving in the right direction again. I hope things are positive for the most part with everyone else as well. Keep posting, it's become a great way to end the day for me!

Good Luck!!!

Me too... 22 for me!!!

Wonderful! Keep up the good choices!

Nice! Keep up the good work.

Keep up the good work! The weight will come off as the water comes out of your body. My surgery was 10/29 and I was taking blood pressure medication with a water pill combined and had swelling in my hands and ankles. It has gone down more everyday. Some of the swelling comes back during the day the more I'm on my feet. However I'm not taking the medication and my BP is normal, and Im doing ok with the swelling. Lost 11 pounds the first week! Hang in there!

I have shortness of breath as well.

Not cold... However my nose won't stop running.

Thanks everyone. I'm going to vitamin shop tomorrow.

My meals are protein shake 8 oz is my max and very hard. Today I only had water and 2 oz of applesauce. Very crampy
