I'm doing good, I lost 35 pounds and I'm stuck sing 6 weeks have not lost anything n 3 weeks. But I am very thankful for the 35 pounds. I need to see the NUT I must not being doing something right. I hope I start losing again soon.

I'm 7 weeks post op, I have lost 24 pounds, was hoping I would lose faster. But I am very thankful for the pounds lost. I need help here, I can not "go" without taking milk of magnesia, has anyone else experienced this so far out??

I am 5 weeks tomorrow, I still can only eat 2oz at a time, is that normal. I still feel pressure after eating 2oz is that normal? LOL I was sleeved on 7 11 16 HW 272 Sw 259 Cw 234

Shaunie, thanks for the feedback I needed to hear that. Congrats on you weight loss!

I am one month out tomorrow, I have lost 21 pounds. I hit a stall at 3 weeks. I am unable to have a BM without taking milk of magnesia is this normal at one month out? I'm getting concerned.

I still workout bit I'm just so tired. I see my surgeon and NUT thursday. I'm not eating anything, I make myself like 4 protein shakes a day but out of each one I drink 4 -5 ounces. Question? Can I drink water after a protein shake?

I am 4 weeks out today! Having a little hard time getting in my protien, I'm only getting in about 20 grams. I'm not hungry so that's good. I work daily on meeting my protien goal. I see the weight coming off but I hit a stall at three weeks. I hope it start moving soon. I feel great, no pain at all! So glad I did this.

Thank you KristenLe,really good ideas I will try them and I will let you know how it's going. I took gasX today and was able to drink 4 iz of protein shake and 8Oz of water so far

Hello all, I was sleeved on 7-11-16. I'm 3 weeks, 3 days out. Everything is a challenge for me. I struggle to get in 20 grams of protein a day and about 8 ounces of water. SF Popsicles are the only thing that feels good to eat. I feel ok the pain is gone! Still have occasional gas pain but its not do bad. I just wish I can get my protien and liquids down. Anyone have any suggestions??

Oh my, I'm so sorry for the setback but it looks like it was caught and now being resolved. Did you have constant pain or just pain when you eat?

I actually started my journey last year in november. While waiting for my insurance approval, I tested the liquid diet and yes I lost weight, only to gain it back a month later. when I got the call that my sleeve surgery was approved, the thought instantly crossed my mind that I did NOT need the surgery. Right now, I'm just sorry I didn't do it sooner. Listen to your inner self and make the right decision for you. Best of luck and I will be praying for you.

Day 6 post op (sleeved 7 11) I'm feeling pretty good. I have actually been cooking for my family and I'm still not hungry. My big incision is still very painful when I over do it. Doing a lot of walking. Which help with the gas pain and stiffness. I can't believe I'm not hungry! But I'm glad I'm not!

My stomach spasm and I feel pressure in my chest

My stomach spasm

I am 5 days post op, I am unable to get in my fluids. I need advise on what others are doing to get in their protein and fluids

My prayers are with you. I am only 3 days out, the first day I was so mad at myself for doing this to myself because I was in so much pain. But it is getting better everyday! Keep us posted on how you feel.

I'm home, the first two days was rough I didn't think I was going to make it through it.I could not take any of the pain medication and everything I drink came right back up. but I spoke with my doctor and he said it was because of the swelling this is day 3 post op. All foods smell horrible. I have absolutely NO appetite. But, i feel so much better! for all the new sleever's hang in it does get better each day

I want to give details but I am still so drugged up. The surgery went well it was very fast. The only problem I'm having right now is getting up and down. My already week stomach will not tolerate the pain meds. They make me trow up

I had my surgery 5his morning at 8am. OMG! THE PAIN was way worse my doctor told my dr. that he found a hiatal hernia but he decided not to mess with it he said because he didn't want to complicate things has anyone ever heard of this sorry misplaced my doctor told my daughters that he decided not to mess with the hiatal hernia

On my way to hospital. Surya at 8am. Please pray for me and my entire surgical team.

Thank you for talking me off the bridge, I got really scared. But I'm back on track. I plan to post every detail I can after surgery. I had my final preop appt with my PCP, he is so great and supportive. Vitamins ordered, protinix ordered, all I need now is a GI cocktail from my surgeon for post op nausea and gas.

My surgery is in 6 days, I'm so anxious and neurvous with all these negative thoughts. I want to reschedule! Someone please remind me that I will be ok.

Yes, mines is July 11.

That awesome! Determination

Mines is July 11th. I lost 3.5 pounds since Tuesday may not seem like a lot but for me it's something considering I had to quit smoking. Anyone else had to quit smoking? If so how is that going?
