gloydh 0 Posted May 9, 2013 I am stressed out because I feel like I am not losing fast. My surgery was 2/12 and I was 265 post op and 225 now, but it teeters up and down a few lbs daily. Anyway I worry that I am stretching my stomach and that it isn't going to work for me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

camihsmith 18 Posted July 6, 2013 I was sleeved on Feb 19th. Started at 263 and now I'm 210... I have hit a stall and no matter what I do I'm not losing. I ride my bike anywhere from 3-10 miles a day.. I almost think I'm eating to much even though I don't eat a lot I snack. I haven't seen 199 in 20+ years and am starting to feel like I never will....

Johanna1955 69 Posted July 8, 2013 Was getting ready this morning to check in for the same reason I was sleeved 2/12, started at 261 lbs, and had been stuck at 205 for 3 weeks. This morning wallah! 203 lbs!!! I think we're going to start hitting plateau's more often now that we're approaching 5 months out from surgery. I work with several who had surgery in Jan and they started having the same experience around 5 months. Others were sleeved a year or so ago and they all assure me the weight will continue to come off just slower than were used to. I too have not seen below 200 lbs in over 20+ years and cannot wait to see that 199. Cheers!!!!! 1 christieouchley reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please stop weighing yourself everyday - EVERYONE'S weight teeters up and down a few lbs daily. You're just torturing yourself. Pick a weigh day once a week and stick to it but only that day.
