Not loosing expected weight after sleeve surgery
Basmouta replied to Basmouta's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Of course today and for the first time I found out that I have to eat protein and food rich in vitamins b12, D, calcium, so tomorrow after seeing the Dr. I will have a new regimen and start all over again as if I have just made my sleeving, I will only eat protein as tuna and salmon and drink lots of green tea hoping I could lose weight. I shall try to walk as much as I can, try to find someone in the gym who would understand my health problems and guide me. i wish I could get rid of my depression and pain, I take Lycra and amitriptyline for my neuropathy . by the way my sugar level is between 80 and 260 which is so good compared to 500. I only have 20 units insulin in the morning and 10 at night plus 1metformin500 twice daily. I wish to loose weight and hope that I would be on track the coming month and succeed. thank you all for your caring and replies and am sorry again -

I had my sleeving on 1 sep 2016, I have been loosing weight so slowly, I am 57 yrs, start wt 140 kg (310 lb) current wt 115 kg (253 lb) my goal wt is 70 kg (154 lb), I eat so little like an egg, 1 cucamber, 3 carrots, 1 low fat yogurt, 1 toast, and add skimmed milk to my tea and low fat cocoa, I drink a total of 8 glasses Water and 2 cup of tea and 1 cup cocoa, I don't excercise at all as I am depressed and have slippage of vertebrae and fibromyalgia, I am loosing the wt so slowly and after 7.5 months I have only lost 35% of my excess wt. my doctor stopped replying on my questions that I'm wondering why am I not loosing weight as sleeved people do, I have read that people who are on wheeled chair lose wt although not moving at all, I try to walk but after 10 minutes my back hurts me so much, and I rest for days moving only in the house, so my question is has anybody else lost wt so slowly, and am I going to loose wt after that till I reach the goal wt, or am I stopping. Please tell me. Thank you all. -

Thank you all for replying to me, I'm sorry but I don't know how to respond to each separately, I made some lab tests and found I have very low level of vitamin d and hi Uric acid, am seeing my doctor tomorrow. As for logging my food I don't eat most of the days, I know that's wrong but I just can't. I don't feel hungry or thirsty thanks God so I'm not an emotional eater anymore . I started walking about 2 kilometers a day but slowly and stopping to lean on cars and then continuing. I shall try the 2 days liquids only. I hope the doctor will help me as I didn't visit him except 3 times post operation as I had an Alzheimer's mother whom I lost recently, and was only messaging him so for sure I was on the wrong track. Thank you all and pls excuse me for the delay.
