3 months post op here and I have had problems drinking water. As soon as I drink regular non flavored water I get immediately nauseated! I can drink teas and sugar free sports drinks fine, but I've been trying so hard to beef up my water intake just to constantly be nauseated by it. Does anyone else have/had this problem?

I would have loved to have lost 4 pounds 2 weeks out if surgery! I'm on month 3 and have only lost 25 pounds. Everyone is different, do not stress!

Hi everyone, my name is Hannah and I was sleeved April 14th. The week after I was sleeved I was surprised to find I had lost 11 pounds! After that I have not lost one pound since, I've actually gained 3. I've seen people in these types of postings losing up to 40 pounds in a month. As happy as I am for them, I still can't help feeling like a failure who is destined to be trapped in this fat body forever. My starting weight was 396 and I was hoping one day to see 299, but the fat just doesn't seem to want to leave me. Any help anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated, or even a cyber hug.

It's a difficult situation to not put yourself in. I only weight myself weekly, but it's extremely hard not to get discouraged when those numbers don't go down. It makes me feel like I've literally done everything I can do to lose weight, and it isn't working. Even if I didn't compare myself to others, it still is very depressing that I'm living this restricted and not seeing results. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

I really hope so. It's beyond discouraging to not see numbers go down at all. It makes me feel like I am stuck this way regardless of what I do. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for your help everyone! I have absolutely no one to vent to about this that understands. I'm getting the fluids, but the Protein is hard. I hit where I'm supposed to be with protein, but the shakes seem to taste worse as time goes by. I've been looking into how to make them taste a little more tolerable.
