I know how you feel! Not sure what happens at 2 weeks :/ have you started puréed or soft solids?

I started puréed. It seems common, it's just very discouraging. :-(

I was sleeved the 26th and am on soft foods. I haven't tried this yet but it was a recipe in my guide from my dr. Take a slice of cheese' date=' put it on wax paper and microwave it until it bubbles. Then take it out and let it cool completely, the book says it'll harden a bit like a cracker. My thought is its like a cheese-it. I'm planning on trying it tonight with some cheddar and white American. Maybe that'll help :)[/quote']

I made crackers like these when I was doing low carb a few months back!!!! I used shredded cheese and baked them in the over on waxed paper... Parmesan gives good flavor too... They are awesome!!

I was stalled for a few days too... It was RIGHT at the number that has haunted me for months... I had lost over 90lbs on my own starting 4 yrs ago...

The past 25 months the lowest I could get was 245... I would bounce up and down between there and about 260 no matter WHAT I tried or how much I worked out. I was 255 day of surgery 8/29.... And then stuck at 245... My number of doom.... I also started back to work full time this week and started purée Tuesday night with the ok from my Dr. ..... Today I am FINALLY past that number!!!! 243!!!! Keep working the process... It will catch up!

I also track my cals and Proteins on myfitnesspal.... Dr. Didn't give a calorie goal... Just Protein and Water... The days I've hit 900 cals I've lost the following day... Those days I stalled I was lower ..... If you are stalled maybe try looking at any cal/protein/water trends?

I'm up 3.7 pounds this week. I am 2.5 weeks out and up already. I can't believe this!

Look to your cycle...sometimes there lies an issue.

I gained and lost within the same 3lbs for 3 weeks, now I am losing again. Don't lose heart, just keep working the program and it will work for you!

August 26 sleever here. On solids foods, now and doing great. Walking a tons.

I don't check the scale daily. I want to hold off checking for 30 days at a time.

I can totally tell weight is coming off as my clothes are fitting looser every day which is awesome.

        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.

      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
