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 !

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
