Hi I am post op week 6 from RNY on June 25 and feel that weight lost has been very slow for me. I feel frustrated and defeated. I am doing and following everything and exercise 30 minutes daily if possible but not weekend. My weight lost has been the following: Start o my journey : 248 lbs After 2 weeks liquid diet: 237 lbs 10 day post op appt: 225 Week 5 post op: 215 My primary care doctor who I seen over the week end told me my weight lost was kind of slow compare to most other weight lost surgery. My bubble was busted and I cry all day. I have my 6 week follow up with my surgeon on Wednesday August 5,2015. I admit that I was hoping to be down to 200 lbs but I don't think this will happen. So I just need someone to help guide me through this and give encouragement. Thanks

macksmom it does get easier I am 10 days o post op today. My first week was horrible I couldn't lay, sit or stand I had so much pain. But the more I walked the better it got. So it does get better hang in there.

I am 10 days post op surgery was June 25, 2015. Frustrated weight lost 12 lbs. I don't know if this is good or bad. See surgeon tomorrow for post op appt.

I have had the same problem. I am 9 days post op and my emotions are all over the place. It is 4th July weekend and I cried most of Thursday and Friday . I think it's due to the pain been out walking since surgery and I think it has helped. Hang in there.

My name is Jeanette I am 9 days post op and I feel hungry and I thought I would not after having gastric RNY. It s been crazy with this liquid diet before and after surgery. I can't even stand the smell of the protein shakes. I have to force my self to drink them and before surgery. I had no problems
