I'm right there with you!!! I'm 5 weeks out Aug 26 surgery date. I've lost 26lbs and scale is STUCK!! It's common to hit a "stall" that's what I have read on here anyways. We will start losing again I'm sure
Well I had my surgery on August 19th! So just under 6 weeks I have lost 48 pounds! I'm pretty excited about this! I had my post op appointment and I was cleared to finally head back to the gym! My blood work came back and said I need a little Iron and Vitamin D, so will be starting that soon! I have only had 1 dumping phase since surgery! I never felt pain or have had to take any pain reliever since surgery! My incisions are gone! I had a reality check on how important it is to keep your fluids up, I went swimming at the gym one day and didn't realize I was dehydrated and ended up passing out in the locker room and riding in an ambulance to the emergency room because I didn't keep my fluids up! I'm now getting about 80 oz average in fluids a day, some days are tough and I'm only able to get 42 oz in! I never struggled with gas issues or getting it stuck anywhere. Everything taste super sweet to me so I've only been drinking Water since my surgery! I haven't noticed any taste change but I have craved odd combinations I usually wouldn't ever consider. I have experienced my skin is a lot softer now, and sometimes my legs feel restless. I haven't had increased energy yet like everyone talks about, or an increased sex drive lol.. My safe, go to food is bananas! If I'm having an off day, or not really hungry but need to eat then I will have a banana. So that's an update on my first 5 1/2 weeks!
Good luck to everyone
