10 weeks post, haven't lost anything in 4 weeks
twin85 replied to twin85's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My clothes are fitting a little looser and believe inches have been lost (haven't kept track). But not loose enough for me to purchase new clothes. When I first started my journey i was ready to bunnies clothes this far out, but seems I'll need to wait a little longer. -

10 weeks post, haven't lost anything in 4 weeks
twin85 posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hello, I am 10 weeks post ( and it's been tough) I have lost 24 pounds. The first 20 with in the first 4 weeks. But the last four weeks I have lost nothing! I go to the gym about 4-6 times a week. I do 40-50 minutes of cardio then some weights and ab workouts. It's very discouraging and makes me want to eat that burrito or cheese burger even more seeing no progress. Any suggestions? I get 60+ protein and usually meet my liquid intake. Sw-194 Cw-170 Gw- 140 -

Is anyone wearing a girdle after surgery to help skin stay tight and not so lose? What are your thoughts? Brands? I am trying to avoid having a lot of lose skin and thought maybe a girdle would help. I know people wear them after giving birth.

How do I get in more fluids?

My doctor told me 48 to 60 a day but the 60 is more for heavier men. Maybe ask your doctor see what they say. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Occasional Mixed Drink?
twin85 replied to Chris1971's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a drink last Saturday and was sleeved on Jan 6. I had two shots.. was fine.. but I don't recommend going outside of surgeons recommendations. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I had my surgery on a Friday and I feel that I would have been able to go back to work on Monday.. I don't because I had everyone telling me to take time off.. if I didn't have that I would have been back at work.. I am a teacher so my mobility is pretty flexible. My surgery and recovery went exceptionally well ( that's what they told me).. you might want to see how your surgery goes though.. but if you take the week off Friday to following Monday is 10 days not including the surgery day.. if you are in the same boat I was in.. its enough days Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

8 Days Post Op - Back to Work
twin85 replied to FindingCarrie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Pstarf have you tried the G2 Gatorade? Or the vitawater zero?? That might be a little more pleasurable to drink... I drink my Water throughout the day but if I fall short I find it easier to drink the G2 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
How long did you guys wait to start the gym back up? Pre surgery I was pretty consistent with the gym, I tried going just to walk 6 days after my surgery and it just felt weird so I left. I am a week and a half out and want to go back, even if it is just to walk, but not sure if it is safe. I have been stuck at same weight for 2 days now.. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
