Great job. I will chime in as a negative nancy and warn you not to expect the same results every week. Usually a huge drop is followed by a slowdown, so don't feel defeated if that does happen or if you happen to hit a stall earlier because you've lost so much so quickly. Just try to look at the big picture and enjoy this huge drop so soon after surgery.

Good luck and congrats on your new sleeve,

~Cheri

I agree with Cheri. I lost 20 by my 2 week post op visit. However, the scale stalled and I got pretty depressed. You may want to measure yourself. The scale may stall but your body will keep changing

Thank you Cheri. I am not a big fan of the scale or weighing myself. I promise I wasn't even gonna weight myself until a month but the fiancé was dying to. I am just making sure I feel great. The numbers don't bother me unless 6months were to pass n don't see any results. But I think I will be. Today is day 5post up... My goal is to walk on the treadmill for 30mins. It helps me a lot.

      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. 🤞
