To be honest, I was hoping to be down 30 by the end of my 3 week post op...But it seems I'm at a stand still since the 9th of the month....know that I maybe looking to much in it...but I have my second post op apt with my doctor next month and I'm trying to make sure that I reach my weight lost goal of losing another 25lbs by then.

Good evening, I am new here and glad to see others who have had or are planning on having the gastric bypass.... 5'6 HW: 340 SW: 331 DOS: 2/16/15 CW: 306 GW: 175 url=http://www.bariatricpal.com][/url]

So glad I am not alone when it comes to this...I am 3 weeks post op and have lost 29lbs from the date of my surgery until now....Not sure what I am doing wrong, if anyone have any tips...Please feel free to give, cause I really need it....Thanks.. url=http://www.bariatricpal.com][/url]

Good morning, I know the feeling that you are at. I was dealing with the same thing when I had my surgery 3 weeks ago. The only thing that helped me was sugar free peppermint candy. And when it comes to getting my Protein and other liquid in, I would do 30ml every 15 to 20 minutes...I used a timer on my phone, tablet to help me out....I helped a lot, even when I wasn't able to get all the 64 ozs in everyday...I was able to get close to it like 48ozs. I hope this helps some....Have a blessed day...

Good morning James, The meds were the biggest reason for the regain weight.. Now I am no longer on 15 different meds, all of the steroid meds I am no longer taking, been place on a different meds due to my migraine headaches that I am still dealing with.

Good morning, I just had a RYN revision from a RYN that was done in 2003.....I'm 3 weeks post op and I am just starting on my soft foods but I am still doing my Protein drinks and shakes too. The first 2 weeks I was only doing my Protein Drinks and shakes, broth, and sugar free Jello, crystal light and Water...I'm doing 30ml every 15 to 20 minutes.

Congratulations....I know that you are on cloud 9....Can't wait until my big day comes....

Kendra, I understand where you are coming from... In 2003 I had gastric bypass and list a total of 150lbs, but started having some health issues which cause me to be placed on a lot of medicines including steroids which cause you to gain weight. ...I regained all plus some. I found a great doctor and just had a revision done 3 weeks ago... You can get there, I have learned through therapy and pre surgery support groups that we deal with alot of mental issues that we didn't think we had... I wish you all the best..

Hi, I'm new to this group... My surgery was 2/16/15... Went and saw my doctor on yesterday for my post op appt. So I'm 3 weeks post op and have lost a total of 29 lbs in 22 days... But like everyone else I can still wear my old clothes, but I know that will change.
