Only Lost 8 Lbs Firt Week, Stall For 6 Days After Surgery.



Recommended Posts

Hey guys... I'm totally not comparing... Well trying not to. 2 weeks post op. 8 first week and nothing in week 2. Wth. I'm on full liquids for a month! Anyone know what I can do different. I'm drinking about 30/ 40 oz of Water and 50/60 grams of Protein in my shakes.. I'm also doing some broths, not much because I can't take in alot so everytime I eat I'm trying to do protein. I'm also sick of liquids. Like dying from something different. Is this stall after surgery normal and any ideas???

I don't think you can qualify an eight pound weight loss in one week with "only". If you are still at eight pounds a month from now, then you have permission to hit the panic button. Otherwise, sit back, relax, and let it happen at its own pace.

I hit the two week stall, too. I'm at seven weeks now, and in the middle of another week-long stall. My body is really fighting me to stay at its comfort weight. Bleh.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
