I'm a 38 yof who was overweight. I weighed in on 3/19 at 248lbs I had my sleeve done 3/19/13 and I'm a a stall. I feel like my weight is going nowhere. I'm eating my Protein, keeping track of all my food intake. Anyone have advice??

I had my sleeve on exactlly a month before you, and I ran into the same 'problem'

So, I stopped getting on the scale, and took picture and body measurements instead. I promised myself to weigh only once a month.

Focus on healing yourself and focus on the big picture. You will start losing the weigh again! It's like waiting on a kettle to boil.

60gm of Proteins, and at least 64 floz of Water everyday. Hard, but work up to it!

Give your body a break, it's been through a lot! Your body's just figuring things out.

I will be rooting for you!

I know it's hard, but please be patient and keep doing what you're doing, because it will pass and the weight will drop. We almost all go through stalls. It's a part of the process. If you stay the course you will pass this bump in the road. Do not let discouragement cause you to get off your plan. Believe me, it WILL pass. Hang in there.

I had a 3 week stall at 3 weeks post sleeve and then list for two weeks then another 2 week stall. I know it's a normal process of the body readjusting so keep doing what you are doing and walk walk walk drink your Water and don't worry!! I hate stalls too but I have to be patient!!!

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!! I am pushing through, it's hard getting the 64 oz of fluids and Protein in every day...of course you all know this. I am rooting for everyone out there because this is most definitely a full time job and something that takes dedication. I really hope we ALL achieve our goals!!

I joined a gym and can't wait to be cleared to lift a bit to start toning and of course I'm walking and it REALLY helps when you feel discomfort and know you're full.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
