sleeved 6/17 why am I not losing WTF



Recommended Posts

Well that just SUCKS! You would think being on straight liquids getting less than 400 calories a day' date=' one would lose weight![/quote']

Same happened to me. Now I'm 5 weeks out and can pretty much eat anything and I'm losing an average of 2 pounds a week.

Oh thank goodness it's not just me. I was sleeved last Tuesday 6/18 and haven't lost a thing. I can see changes in my body, however.

I will be 3 weeks out tomorrow and haven't lost anything in the past week. I have only lost 10 lbs total. I don't know what to do. I can barely get my Protein in and have a difficult time with food.

I stalled out in my second week too :( . I am 5 weeks out as of tomorrow and just started dropping weight again yesterday. For me, I must keep my carbs low, Protein and fluids high and exercise every day. Keep reading other threads and you will see that stalls in the 3 rd week are very common. It takes time to figure out how to get your nutritional needs all while healing from surgery. I had a very hard time getting protein requirements as I was not tolerating Protein shakes ver well.

Hang in there and try to stay calm. All is well.

I too put on weight while on the hospital. It came off over about a week. I hit the 3week stall too and actually gained weight on 500 calories a day. Once I started going to the bathroom halfway through that week it started coming off. I'm now down 34lbs since my pre op diet.

I was sleeved 6-17.....weight was 234.8 down to 222.4....3 days NO LOSS!! I'm hoping my soon to come cycle has something to do with it! I'm going crazy! I'm not getting enough Protein but I'm trying. H2O is not an issue. I'm getting the Water in!

Well I was sleeved 6/19 and since the pre op diet I lost 26 . The last 3 days however the scale hasn't moved. Not complaining though as I see alot of people gained some weight in the hospital. I didn't but now might be starting my stall. We just have keep moving !

        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
