So I got my surgery on 3/15 and the first week I lost 5 pounds, which I think was the weight of my stomach that was removed. After two weeks post op I went back to eating solids. I get full fast but am hungry every two hours. I haven’t lost anything after the first week. This is week 4.😩 am I going to lose any weight. This is insane.

Thank you

Thank you

Everyone else thanks for the responses. I know I need to eat better and exercise.

If you’re going to make fun of me then don’t comment on my post. I came here seeking help and support, not to be ridiculed.

I’m eating a spinach egg white wrap from Starbucks for breakfast usually sometimes I’ll just have a protein shake. I usually walk half a mile to a mile a day. I usually eat 3-4 buffalo drummies from 7/11 for lunch, which equals to 1-2 wings. Then for a snack I may have potato chips. But I’m usually always hungry. I drink in excess of 64oz. Of water. Sometimes I’ll have subway, half a six inch and chips. I know my diet is not that good but I don’t have time to cook so I usually eat from those places and for dinner I may have a cooked meal. It varies. My point is regardless of what I’m eating it is still less than I used to eat before surgery so why am not losing any weight? I haven’t been 💩 everyday either

I usually eat an egg white spinach wrap for breakfast or a protein shake, then maybe 3-4 chicken drummies for lunch and for dinner it varies. I have been drinking water and eating potato chips. I walk moderately. Despite my calorie intake it is still less than I used to eat before the auto so what’s the problem. And no I’m not 💩 that much.

So I’m one day post op. My preop weight was 289. Just wondering how much weight can I lose. My surgeon wants me to get down to 170-180. Is this possible.Anyone had this procedure long ago or lost lots of weight. What did you do to shed the pounds?

The worst part was the gas pain that you have immediately after surgery. After that passes recovery is a breeze.

That’s great. What types of foods do you eat and what is your exercise routine

Has anyone else had excessive gas after gastric sleeve surgery? What did you do to alleviate the discomfort that comes with it? Or how did you get rid of the gas?

I have lots of gas but it won’t pass and it’s just stuck in my stomach. Ugh. It just sits there. Very uncomfortable.

I found out when I woke up that my stomach was pulled through my navel. Has this happened with anyone else? I thought this was weird

Great. What types of foods do you eat and what is your exercise routine like?

That’s amazing. So proud of you. Keep up the good work.

So I’m scheduled to get the surgery this week and yesterday I ate a full meal and today I ate a pastry and 3 chips with salsa. I’m not going to eat again I have 3 1/2 days until the gastric sleeve surgery. I tried not to but got super hungry. Will they cancel? Will they know that I cheated on my pre op diet.? Please help.

Thanks for all the help.
