If pain is keeping you from eating you should check with your surgeon to make sure there isn't any problems.

Ladies I'm getting so frustrated. I had my surgery on 2/19 and lose 9lbs when I went in surgery n weighed 271 now today 8/2 I'm still 212 and stuck! I have upped my protein' date=' Water and exercise. This is the first time I have felt so down after this surgery. I really just need some encourage because now I'm feeling like a failure. How is everyone else losing weight. What are y'all eating. Give me some ideas I need help. I can't see my doc because I no longer have insurance[/quote']

We all stall at different levels of weightloss. Try staying away from the scale for awhile. Some stalls last week's. .. look at me I'm into month 6 the month most surgeons say you should be at 75% of loss, I'm not! At the same time my md is pleased the 47 lbs that have come off. .... hang in there the scale will change numbers in a downward fashion, stressing doesn't help weight loss. ...

I feel you pain... I didn't loose anything for a month and a half and just started loosing again. I stopped exercising for 2 weeks and started back up this week and started loosing... I think sometimes you totally need to change things. It's all trial and error. All different body types and age as well. Don't get discouraged. Look how far you've come. Your doing a great job and be proud of yourself! Have you measured yourself? The month and 1/2 I didn't loose weight I still lost inches... Give it a try!

202.4, officially half way there! July was not a good weight loss month, however, prior to RNY I would have gained at least 5 pounds with all the stress and crap. Instead I lost 3. That still qualifies as success in my book!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
