Hi, everyone! It seems like Spring May have finally arrived here in NW Indiana, lol. After 2 days of snow last week I’m loving the 61degrees today I was sleeved 1/30/18. Started at 320 and am 265 today. Though I’m happy to be losing, I feel like it’s harder than I expected. My first goal is 199 by my Birthday on Halloween. I’ll go 2 weeks and lose nothing then lose 5 pounds in 2 days. Worried I won’t make my goal at this rate. I know it’s gonna ping time o slow down even more.

Sleeved January 30th. Ive only list 3 pounds in 2 weeks😓. I’m feeling like it’s not working for me. I’m not gaining, just not losing. I was 320 2 weeks before surgery and 310 before surgery. I’m now 278. I felt great at first, but now feel bloated and hate these stalls! Anyone else feel like they aren’t losing enough? I really don’t want to be ONE who surgery didn’t work on, ugh!

Surgery January 30, 2018 not losing😓

FluffyChix, pooping is not so good. I did take some Milk of Magnesia earlier in the week, and even then didn’t feel I went enough. I just hope to get out of this slump soon. I’m so discouraged right now. -
Sleeved January 30th. After a stall weeks 2 & 3 I’ve finally started losing again. I’m entering the week where I can eat and wondering what a typical daily menu is like for you. I plan on continuing with the Premier protein shake at least once a day, maybe twice in order to get my protein in. Just not sure what else I should be eating.

Had Gastric sleeve on 1/30. Felt good losing week 1. Haven’t lost anything in the last 4 days and even gained 1 lb back. What am I doing wrong? I drink a protein shake in morning, have soup (4-6oz) with added protein for lunch and dinner and one snack of sugar free pudding with added protein. I sip water all day long. I feel like my surgery is a failure already😓.

Sleeved on 1/30. I actually just posted a topic that I’ve not lost anything in 4 days. It’s very discouraging. Thanks to everyone for sharing their experience. It really does make it easier. Hope to keep in touch with you January sleevers. Look forward to sharing our ups and downs and encouraging each other. 😊

What is everyone drinking on Stage 2 Full Liquid post op
Zanstt posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I’m so sick of all the sweet things. Protein shakes, jello, sf pudding...I still have my organic low sodium broths that I add MRS Dash to but I need more flavors, lol. I’ll be on this stage for 5 weeks. Which cream souos are are you drinking? I’m confused because all of the labels seem to be high in sugar and carbs and low in protein. I do have protein packs I can add to them, however the carbs and some sugar content worries me -

Yummy. Sounds like great idea! Guess I better get to the store before the next snow storm hits😊 -
Newbie here. Looking forward to sharing my journey with others who have had the gastric sleeve surgery. I am one week list op today. The first week was awful for me. I really questioned what I had done. I had to go back in hospital for IV fluids as I was unable to get even the tiniest sips of water down. After receiving the fluids I started feeling great! Today I started the full liquid diet. Not quite sure of amounts im suppose to be taking in at a time. Still getting use to figuring out when I'm actually full. Sorry to bring up this subject, but No bowel movement yet so dr. said to take half dose of Milk from magnesia. Praying it moves things along😊💩. Anyone else have problems with bms ?

I’ve taken milk of magnesia every day and still nothing! It’s really uncomfortable😩.
