You aren't 2 weeks yet because my surgery was the 22nd and I'm 2 weeks exactly today. Don't get ahead of yourself ;)

That being said I've lost 19lbs post op. I'm also a higher BMI 49ish at surgery and have always lost weight pretty quick. I think that makes a big difference.

You also have to remember that you lost a lot preop as well! Assuming your preop was 2 weeks long, that's 24 pounds in a month... Average of SIX POUNDS a week. Sounds good to me!!!!

At two weeks out I was down 13 pounds from my surgery date... Then I didn't lose another stinking pound for three weeks (actually I gained four pounds then slowly shed them over the three weeks timeframe).. Then I lost three more pounds then nothing for another week... Then this week I'm already down three more pounds!

I did 3.5 MONTHS of preop and my average loss was 3.5 pounds a week. Since my surgery my average loss is 2.5 pounds a week.

I am still on liquids, broth, ice pops, Protein shakes. I hope to be on purée on Wednesday. I did start with a lower BMI. I was at 35 BMI at 207 pounds. I'm at 190 now. But, I feel a little miserable. I know it will get better...

I started in december at 409. Day of surgery I was 370. At my 2 week (around a week ago) I was at 347. My surgeon told me I had 19% loss which was more than expected but "I'll take it" were his exact words. Starting the gym this week to get it all going.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
