I was sleeved on march 22nd. I have lost 30 pounds on the dot and am at 275. The scale has not moved in 5days!!! Has anyone else had this problem? It's so depressing. I get up every morning and it was fluctuated from 277 to 274. What is going on!!! I don't see how I'm not losing because I'm barely eating anything! :-(

I lost really fast in the beginning. I was sleeved 12/7 and lost 21 pounds that month. I go through periods of not losing weight for a week, then I will lose 8 pounds total for the month. I know it is frustrating, but your body is going thru alot right now. You will start losing again.

Do a search on the site for 3 week stall. It is quite common.

I stalled almost exactly at three weeks too. Many do. The scale will move again soon.

You are doing great! I was sleeved on 3/12 and I have lost 15 pounds. I'm really hoping for a bigger loss this week, I seem to be losing pretty slow. 30 pounds in 2 weeks is great!!!!

I'm thinking a lot of it is Water weight. Everyone is telling me they can tell losing inches but when the scale doesn't move it is depressing. Congrats to everyone! How are y'all feeling? I am so amazed at how little I can eat. I made some scrambled eggs and ate them for the first time and was done after only a couple of bites!!! I am holding everything down so far. Gaining energy back surely but slowly.

I am starting my 3rd week and I have been stalled for about 5 days now. I understand your frustration. Everyone on here says it will pass. I am ready for it too. I like seeing the pounds melt off..the stall is quite annoying :(

I get a natural high when I see the scale drop!! I started at 305 and 275 is not being nice to me at all!!! I can't understand how I'm not losing if I'm barely eating. But it seems to be pretty common.

And I just walked 1/2 a mile pushing my 2 year old in a wagon so maybe that will help! Also. It is that "time" and my sister in law is a nurse practitioner and she said after that is over I may see some pounds drop.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
