So I'm officially 1 month post op today my pain is pretty much gone at this point.However for almost the past 2 weeks my weight has been bouncing back and forth between 279&281lbs I have seen alot of people say there is no such as a stall this early on so I'm just wondering what It could be and what I have to do to change it.I'm really good at drinking the 64oz of water per day the only thing I struggle with is those nasty protein shakes they make me feel nauseous.I drink the premier ones they tasted so much better before surgery...but anywho any advice is appreciated.

How are fellow March sleevers doing?
Aworknprogress replied to ElseeG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was sleeved on 3/5 and I'm currently experiencing the infamous 3 week stall since my 3rd week I have been bouncing back and forth between 279&281 I hear its normal so I'm trying not to stress it.Just sticking to my meal plan and about to start working out at the gym tomorrow. -
I hope it all works out in ur favor...that's not fair though hopefully they can waive it for you since you have come so far

Aworknprogress replied to ewms's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm on week 3 post op I was doing pretty good up until this point for some reason this week has been challenging somewhat of a depressing week..I'll be glad when things get better for me as well -
So I was suppose to return to work 3/19 however my period started that day and I was feeling like crap so I took a extra day off thinking for sure I would feel alot better today but nope I woke up this morning feeling similar to how I felt when I woke up out of surgery...has anyone other women experienced worse cramps after surgery?than u did before?

Was this surgery enough for you?
Aworknprogress replied to frust8's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
For me this surgery was enough I have come to the realization that me and anesthesia don't get along well when I was 17 I had a breast reduction through up maybe about 2 hours after they woke me up from that procedure...then when I was sleeved on 3/5 i was sick for almost 24 hours after surgery I only vomited once but I still felt horrible the entire day...at this point I don't think I'll have too much saggy skin but if i do I'll learn to embrace it as long as I'm no longer overweight I'm happy with that Sent from my SM-S820L using BariatricPal mobile app -
I'm noticing everyday it's getting a little easier for me,learning new tricks on how to get out of bed without putting much pressure on my right side(because that what hurts most)I'm also excited because I'm already down 11 pounds and I was just sleeved on 3/5...just can't wait for that sharp pains to disappear Sent from my SM-S820L using BariatricPal mobile app

Gm all,so today is the day I'm scheduled for surgery at noon.Up until today I was hype and ready now im nervous as heck.Honestly what I'm most worried about is the anesthesia like going under.Also worried about how I'm going to feel pain wise after the fact.I'm not backing out or anything but I could use some encouragement
