Hey All, I am almost 9 weeks post op and suddenly today out of no where I got really hungry. I've only been able to eat about 500-700 calories a day so far but haven't been hungry at all and out of no where, in the evening an hour after I ate dinner, I became famished!! In your experience is this normal and will it pass or has my hunger returned and is here to stay? Thank you in advance!

I had scallops and broccoli/cauliflower for dinner...no increased carbs. It came on quite suddenly and hasn't happened before.

Hey All. It's my first post. I was sleeved 5 weeks ago today. I've been weighing myself once a week. I lost fast the first three weeks then week four only 1/2 a lb but still a loss. Then today I get on the scale and I am up 3lbs!! It was very alarming as I've been following my diet to a T and trying to get between 600-800 calories a day (closer to 600 typically). I don't know what to think. I am at a loss -- a 3lb gain is not a 1lb fluctuation. Has anyone else had an early gain and it resolved itself or is this going to be it for me for weight loss and now I"m going to be fighting to keep even these few lbs off?

Thanks! I think I equate stall with no loss vs gain. But being new to this process I guess I should just keep plugging along with my plan and getting my fluids and Protein and give it more time before allowing myself to panic/get discouraged!!

Thank you - -It's just disheartening I guess. I know they say you lose the most weight early on so I feel like a 3lb weight gain so soon = failure again.
