I was sleeved on 5/22. I've lost about 48lbs some of which was lost during pre op diet. Is this normal? I just feel like I should have lost more at this point. I'm feeling really disappointed today.

Normal is whatever your body allows - 48 lbs?! You are a ROCK STAR! Sounds like you are well on your way to a new life! I'm envious of your loss, so you should be celebrating that!

That sounds very good...I'm in my mobile, so I don't see stats in your ticker and am not sure how much the "some" was that you lost pre-op, but considering you are 3 weeks out, being down 48 pounds seems very encouraging.

48 lbs in the past 3-5 weeks and you're "disappointed"...?

What in the heck has happened to us as a society to where this could even be remotely considered something to be "disappointed" about?

I'm disappointed that you feel disappointed about this instead of celebrating your new healthier life.

Chin up, buttercup - it only gets better!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        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!
