I have only loss 5lbs in the last 2 months, (49 since September 9). I've been following all of the rules. Getting my protein in. Going to the gym 5 days a week. I really don't know what else to do. Do u have any suggestions to jump start my weight loss???

I have stayed off the scale for a while because I was getting so frustrated. Got back yesterday and still nothing after 2 weeks. Ugg. Is anyone else having these problems or did have them? If so, what did u have to do to jump start your weight loss again?

My stomach start to growl, like it use to before the surgery. I take 2-3 bites of something and then full again for a while.

Usually my belly starts to growl like it use to so I take 2 or 3 bites of something and it goes away and I am full again.

I was sleeved on Sept 9. I was reversed from Lap Band. I also had to have my gullbladder taken out. The pain at first was unbearable but I am feeling wonderful now. I tried to go back to work in 6 days. That didn't work out very well for me. I ended up taking off the rest of the week. I am back to work now. I have a desk job and have a little discomfort where my big incision is due to my pants sitting on it all day. I am on soft foods. Everything seems to be going to down great. I can only take 3 bites of my food and then I am full but hungary again in 2 hours or so. I am 2 weeks and 1 day post op and I am down 21 pounds. Still have aobut 70-80 more that I would love to loose.

I dont know about diarrhea. I finally had my first bowl movement today but it was extremely hard.

I was sleeved Tuesday sept 9. Any others out there? How r u feeling?

I am doing better. I had a lot of pain for the first day and a half. So much pain that I was regretting getting the surgery. They normally let there patients go home the next day but I was no way close enough to go home yet. I had a band removal, gallbladder removal, scartissue removed and then the sleeve. I have been able to get down broth and my protein shakes but I am scared to try anything else.

I am starting to get really nervous. Tomorrow is my day. I have to be at the hospital at 530am ans should be on the operating table at 730am.

Thank you.

Tomorrow at 730. Wow. My nerves are really starting to pick up now.

I am hoping to get banded to sleeve in the same operation. I am scheduled for Sept 9 at 7:30am. I am supper excited and scared at the same time. I have a 6mth old boy that I have to make sure is taken care of too. When I got my band my recovery was a breeze, I am hoping for the same but we will see. Can anyone give me any helpful tips on what to expect the first couple of days after surgery. I only took off 4 days off of work so I am a little worried that I won't be able to get back to work in the amount of time that I want to.

I am set up for Sept 9. I'm getting nervous. I hope they can take the band out and do the sleeve all in one surgery.
