I don't track my stuff. [emoji53] I believe it was done correctly, but idk. My surgeon don't do it anymore bc insurance companies weren't paying on patients. So the hospital was having to foot the bill. So right now he isn't Practicing.

On September 11, 2015 (less than 2 months from 2 years.) I opted to have the Bariatric sleeve done. Starting weight was 248, my height is 5'2 small build, diabetic among other things. So naturally I was morbidly obese... Fast forward to now, I have ONLY lost 75lbs..([emoji24]) I weigh in at 173 today, still in a unhealthy percentile for my build. I haven't lost more than the usually give or take +1 or -1 lb each week in over a YEAR!! ([emoji36]) I have tried RESTARTS. I go down a lb. but right back up a few days later. I'm not sure what's worst, me wasting my time on having surgery. Or having surgery and not losing near the amount of weight you want and/or need to lose. It extremely HARD for me to except, after all the work I put in for little results. I'm not happy!! I shouldn't be looking into a revision this soon or at all!! I often say " I ALTERED MY BODY and I'M STILL FAT AND UNHEALTHY!! (Who does that? 🤦🏼‍♀️) - has anyone had this issue? What did you do? -is this normal? Or just another fail on my part? - what can I do? I'm I a total loss? BTW, please don't kick me while I'm down. I don't want to hear about going back to the DR. or NUT. My DR is no longer doing the surgery due to insurance & hospital going into litigation. Also, I no longer have insurance, so running to the doctor is very costly, and not an option. Things I do daily: Protein shakes Drink water ( as hard as it is) Constantly active Eat ( small meals of course) [emoji6] Thanks for taking the time to help! It's greatly appreciated, coming from others w/ similarities.

I will have to look in to that @@OutsideMatchInside My SW 246 CW 180 GW 125 I'm 5'2 my BM before surgery was 46. No doubt I think the tea and seeds are effecting me. Thank you all for ur support and help. And I totally relate to carrying around 69lbs bc the more I lose.. The more I think I did I manage with all the extra weight on me.

I hate Water now after surgery!!! And I hate all the additives u can put in water!!! I love regular sweet tea. I'm walking around my subdivision, and chasing after a 4 year old.

Wow, that's very true!! Thanks for the comments. I don't think I'm eating enough.. Which doesn't help getting all the Protein that I need. I will admit I'm ADDICTED to sunflower seeds and sweet tea. When I get hungry or want a snack I eat sunflower seeds instead of chips etc.

Thank you for ur comment. I guess I need to look at somethings and try to figure out the problem. Thanks again [emoji846]

It's very sickening to be almost 9 months post op, and only lost 69 lbs.. It's so frustrating to know that u altered ur body, and still can't lose weight. I have consulted my dr and nut. They give me the same old list of things to do/not to do. Nothing changes!! [emoji25][emoji25][emoji25]

Are we allowed to take diet pills after surgery?? Sleeved 9/11/15 8m 16 days since surgery. SW: 246 CW:181 (for 9 weeks now) GW: 125

Oh ok thank you. I'm was sleeved 9/11/15. It's been 7 months. I only lost 62 lbs. I haven't lost anything else.

Has anyone had a revision done due to not enough weight loss? I feel like I may need this done.

I have 54 lbs to go. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App But I haven't lost anything in more than a month in and half. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have stayed the same weight now for idk how long. It's getting old. I have tried my hardest to "embarrass the stall". I have been on a stall more then not! I'm even doing 48 hrs rest and nothing.... I'm afraid I lost all I'm going to lose. Has anyone stopped at 64 lbs? I'm only 64 lbs down in 7 months. It's very disappointing to alter your body and still be fat! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
