AnyonE NEVER LOSE WEIGHT?



Recommended Posts

I was on May 15th. Everything is going great so far. I'm in second week and my Dr has me on thicker liquids this week. Just curious...I haven't lost a single pound in 3 days. Has this happened to anyone?? In my head I'm thinking this is just another diet (that I can't quit)...and God forbid if I wasted all that money. But I'm trying to stay positive. I kno I have a long road ahead of me. But I have a lot of friends that had the sleeve done in the last few months and they have all been steady losers...like An average of 2 pounds a day for the first 6-8 weeks. Any advice??

I had my revision on May 6th and actually gained 8 pounds for the first 7 days or so. I lost that and and additional 13 since and I am only 18 days out. Your body has taken on a lot of Fluid and is going through a lot of changes. Give it time to heal. The weight will come off don't you worry. Good luck!

I had a lap band for 16 months and had nothing but issues so had it taken out and changed to the sleeve.

Totally normal, they are stalls, and everybody gets them. They can last form a few days to a month or more. It's just your bodies way of making sure that everything is ok. They happen, and they end. Don't worry about it. Just keep doing what you are supposed to do and you will be just fine. During stalls though, sometimes it helps to try and up your Protein intake, let your body know that everything is fine.

Don't weigh every day...it gives Mr. scale too much power...focus on Water, Protein and moving more...the weight will come off...best of luck to you!

I am one month post opp. The first 2 weeks I was loosing 1 lb everyday. At my 2 week check up my Dr. Said do not weigh yourself every day because stalls will happen and then I would get depressed. I continued to weigh myself but then 3 weeks in stalls started happening. Now I just weigh my self once a week.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
