I was sleeved on July 24th. At first I was eating an drinking a lot trying to get in my recommended amounts but now at almost 6 weeks out I have completely lost my appetite. I dnt want to eat. Maybe once or twice a day is all because usually I forget to. (I'm still drinking though). Is it possible for my stomach to shrink even more because I'm eating so little? Because when I do eat it seems like it takes less to fill me up. I used to be able to take 4 or 5 bites and I started to feel it. Now it's like 3 or 4 bites. Is this normal? Has anyone else experienced this?

I've noticed the same disinterest in eating. I don't like the full feeling anymore, it doesn't sedate me like it used to. But I'm afraid of losing my hair so I still try to eat enough to get my nourishment. As far as being able to eat less I think I just got less interested in eating more than I need.

Well guys I ended my stall yesterday morning when I went down .4 lbs. And today I got on the scale and dropped about 4 lbs!!!! Turns out I was eating to few calories again. This is my second stall and it seems like when I stall it is because I am not eating enough calories and spreading my meals too far apart. I am now at 269.4!!! A total loss of 38 lbs!!!!!!

what amount of cal should i be eating im five weeks out ????

I had my surgery July 2 down 58 Pounds

That's great, does that include any pre-surgery weight loss, or is that all since surgery?

Hi, Surgery 7/30

Beginning Weight 224

Pre-op 215

Current 198

I'm pleased with the results so far but I wish I could comfortably eat something besides yogurt and the Protein drinks. I tried some fish tonight, tilapia, ate about 2 oz. It feels like the whole portion is sitting in my throat. I'm pretty miserable, really. I'm exhausted all the time and am totally constipated. And I feel like I need an antacid every three hours, when the prescription is for every 12 hours. Sigh. I am praying to feel remotely normal soon. I have so much to do and really, all I want to do is lay around. I haven't left the house in two days for more than 20 minutes. Sorry to complain, I know this is temporary. (God, I hope so!)

I am just starting to feel energized. Once I dealt with the Constipation I am feeling way better.

      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.
