Is anyone back their original weight?? I know i shouldn't have weight yet but I did

And

Kinda worried I'm still over my starting weight by over 5 lbs---

And it's been 4 days---

And I'm not eating all my Protein yet-- it's wired it's like I don't realize part of my stomach is gone but at the same time I'm not really hungry and I'm scared to move stages yet

I was at the dr office with my husband earlier today and I jumped on the scale I was 3lbs lighter than what I weighed in Friday before surgery. I still feel bloated though.

Server not supposed to take Protein the 1st week ? Why? I was given beneprotein -- I've been having that water/ crystal light and Jello and Isopure and Popsicles oh yea and chicken broth ---

Kinda annoyed with the loss-- here's background

How long did it take you to lose Any weight?? I was 307 day of and then day after I was 317 cuz of all the gasses-- now I'm only at 312 --- so I know I have to lose the gas they put--- but since I'm not eating I think I should lose that extra gas Plus weight---- so I'm bugged that its only been 5 lbs list cuz get the extra gas concept -- but I should lose fat since I'm not eating to--- any thoughts/ advise-

Did u gain lots of Water or gas weight??

Hi. I'm doing better today. It was a rough week for me. I've been struggling with really bad back pain and I've never had back pain prior to surgery. And also I had to wear a breathing monitor bc of the pain Med I was on in the hospital. Its just like the oxygen tube that goes in your nose but this also has a flap that covers a bit of your mouth. Not sure if anyone else had this. Well I ended up being allergic to it or something Bc my upper lip swelled to twice It's size and blistered. Ugh. It's feeling much better today but I've just been dealing with pain this week. Telling myself everyday that tomorrow will be better.. today is the first day I've really believed it tho.. Lol.

Thanks for checking in on me! :)

      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. 🤞
