Hi everyone, I had Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in September 2023. my starting weight (on the day of surgery) was 102 KG and today march 27th 2024 I am 70.6 KG so I've lost a total of 31.4 KG. My height is 165 cm. so I believe I'm almost close to my weight goal. I want to lose maybe 8-10 more kilos and I think that's good enough for me. I took photos of my body on November and yesterday I took photos as well to compare both. however what I'm noticing is that although weight number has gone down, I do see difference in shape of my body (legs, arms, face, back) but I have an issue with my stomach. it has gotten better and smaller, however for someone almost going into 60's I don't think my belly should be looking this big. Do you guys recommend anything to do or try or should I see a doctor about this? please help! I don't want to struggle with reaching my goal weight and having a big stomach still.

hi dear, i actually never had kids just always had a big belly as i gained more weight in the past so that just sucks at this point that there's not much i can do about it

hi guys! i did gastric sleeve on September 23rd of 2023. my height is 165 CM, my weight was 102 KG and as of today im 67.5 KG. i've lost weight from legs, arms, back,etc.. however im noticing that my belly is still hanging and big. is this normal? can it be some other issue that i dont know about? if anyone else is going through this or knows something about it, i'd appreciate the help because im getting extremely frustrated..

well brb i go cry. i really had hopes that once i reach my first weight goal which is going into 60's i would see my belly actually shrink alot but now i guess it will always be a thing to live with

hi dear, first few months it will be difficult to eat and drink at the same time. im currently almost 7 months post op and i still cant really eat and drink at the same time. i can take a sip of water while eating but thats about it. however by time you will be able to dont worry about it!

thank you so much dear ❤️

hi dear! thank you so much<3 im not in my 60's hehe i meant my weight range but i will start bathing in moisturizer so when i reach the age of 60 my skin actually does look like this. my stomach is usually the first place i gain weight so i can thats my issue here. i'll try focusing on some ab workouts hoping that can save it. thank you again ❤️

hi dear thanks alot! i actually never thought about having possible food allergies. i might just look into that actually if it is maybeeee a factor. thank you ❤️

hi dear, firstly thank you so much ❤️ Second, unfortunately I've been lacking on the workout part for some time now but i guess i really need to go back and focus on some ab workouts and hope that it will do the job

hi @summerseeker, no i actually never had kids.. that's what's making this whole thing more frustrating

thank you so much! im hoping the stomach will go down by time because it's just extremely frustrating at this point to be honest. im hoping for the best.

Hi guyssss i have a concern with weight stalling. i had my surgery on September 23, 2023, and after the surgery by a month i had a weight stall that lasted 3 weeks and after those 3 weeks but weight kept going down as normal. Recently (for a week now) i've noticed my weight is stuck on 75 KG so im guessing thats another weight stall almost 4.5 months in after surgery. Is it normal to have multiple weight stalls? or should i be worried?

Hi everyone, so i had gastric sleeve on 23/09/2023. my current routine is usually protein shake in the morning, breakfast/lunch around 12-1 PM, then i go to the gym for my workout and have my BCAA during/post workout, and then my dinner when i get home. However, i got told by many people that i should actually keep my protein shake for later on and not in the morning and instead just have breakfast. What do you guys usually do with arrangements of meals and protein shake and so on?
