update on me: feeling GREAT! however I lost 14 lbs my first week and nothing since. I'm two weeks out and I guess my stall hit early! I'm not down about it though, I read everywhere how these things happen :) Able to drink more now so I've been focusing on getting more Water in and drinking my Protein Shakes. Love my sleeve!

I'm the same, lost 12 pounds the first week, then nothing...today is 2 weeks post-op

Hoping the scales moves in our favor soon! :)

I stalled during my second week as well. Upped my cals for a day and started losing again. Right now I'm 5 weeks today and only lose 1-bs a week. Some days nothing. But I have faith eventually the weight will come off. Maybe I just need to eat a Twinkie to make my body believe all is right with the world hahahaha

I was sleeved on 1/30 and feel normal. Walk LOTS and am able to easily get in my Protein, fluids and Vitamins. I have lost 13 lbs in 14 days and countless inches so I have nothing to complain about. Since I'm a self-diagnosed datawhore here is the nitty gritty of my weight/inches/size loss on a weekly basis if you're curious: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AtW90JQQyIegdG1wZFpQemNDZTkxR1lodDRzdnoyaEE&usp=sharing :D

Today is my two week mark and I'm down 33lbs. I have had a super wonderful recovery until today when I was struck with the dreaded left shoulder pain. This is some of the worst pain I have ever been in. I know it's gas but I literally cannot function. Anyone have any advice??

Walk it off like a half mile walk if you can. It is the only way and I used pain killers at night because I could NOT lie down.

I was sleeved 1/23. I lost 13 lbs in the first two weeks and nothing since. I know the stall is normal so I'm not super worried. I've also had a hard time getting all my Protein and Water in. It's been better the last two days and I'm now on soft foods!

I'm betsyann07 on my fitness pal. I can't figure out how to find people on my app. Lol

Jan 28 sleeved and I am feeling great now that I realized I have lost 27 pounds since surgery. I felt like I hadn't lost any weight but I was wrong. This forum has helped keep me motivated. I am noticing changes in my hair already. Sad face.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
