Jesse0021 when did you have your surgery? It is fustrating and I'm following what my Dr has told me, next week after my 1 month post op i get to go to the gym so I'm excited about that and hoping that the extra walking this week helps and gives me a good number.

LMarie- Congratulations on making it to ONederland. Yayyy YOU!!! :)

I was sleeved 9/18. I also have my follow up next week and am excited to be able to start exercising more. I haven't been great about getting my Protein in so I'm sure that's part of it.

I'm with both of you! I've been at a stall the last week!! My surgery was on the 24th and total lost since surgery is 14lbs. It's hard not to get discouraged when you hear of so many people losing 20-30 lbs.

Have you done any exercising at all? I had a slight stall and started taking longer walks... It seems to have helped... I know how difficult stalls are especially since we can eat hardly anything. I was told that our bodies go into starvation mode because of our limited calories. It does eventually straighten out and you start losing again... Try to give yourself a break and be patient... I struggle with my patience and want the weight gone yesterday! Remember we didn't put the weight on overnight so it's not going to come off overnight... You can do this!

I was sleeve 9/28 and I do a light .75 mile walk everyday. Not tough. But wanted to start somewhere. Protein really makes difference. If I get 70-80 grams in the next day I am fine 50-60. My walk is slow and I am exhausted. Good luck

Yes, I walk 2 miles everyday which takes me about 35 mins and then ride a stationary bike for another 15 mins. Yesterday I walked 30 and rode the bike 30.

I had my surgery on Sept 24th and I feel great! I can almost eat anything now. I can't eat sweets tho. 9 days out I already lost 31lbs I go back to doctor on the 28th so I'll get a current weight loss. I find myself eating a lot of cheese I don't like the Protein Shakes so I try to eat as much Protein as I can.

Well yesterday I went to my 1st month appointment, and a huge backpain. The dr sent me to the er for a ct scan as a prevemtion. There was an absess in my stomach. He did a procedurr to drain my absess but saw everything else in good shape. Then Today sent me gor a leak test. It seems I have a small leak and now need another drainage, and an stem or extem in my sleeve for the leak to be fixed and heal. Im extremely sad. All this moth everything was goi h really well. 44 pounds lost sin 2 week preop

Sounds like you really need to goto the dr. Don't mess around with that.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
