Hi all iam 4 months out and am at at platuee please help I have only lost 30 lb and am so depressed about the slow weightloss

I'm almost 7 mos out. I've lost 30 lbs. I lose almost 4-5 lbs a month. I take about 25+pills a day and a few are weight gainers. So I have had onky 1 3cc fill. Iam seeing the dr and I want a fill...am constantly hungry..but I can hardly get the pills down now..so I'll have to live with only 3cc and maybe eat little more frequent meals. But I'll consult with dr. Since I'm diabetic I can rarely have bananas but when having a smoothies I use my bullets to whiz up some frozen strawberries with banana Protein Powder. I still get the taste w/o the sugar increase except the sugar in powder itself.

So I don't have those too often also. Try to stick with Protein and salads with homemade ranch dressing made with greek yogurt so I get very little fat, all the flavor and alot more protein. It's good. I may not lose fast like I want but I am losing...thats all that counts. I do have a problem eating somethings with sugar but indulge in a lowfat frozen yogurt I might start sprinkling or mixing with unflavored protein powder. We'll see. Good luck to all.

I occasionally put a frozen banana (a whole one - usually a small size) into my Vitamix with Protein powder. Seems to have no negative effect on me.

you probably want to post in the appropriate forum for your type of wls. (this is a general forum) you should probably schedule an appt with your surgeon's office and nutritionist so you can review what you are and arent doing post surgery.

I bought a yonanas machine and use to it turn bananas into soft serve. They are perfect when my family has ice cream and I can't. The lactose in ice cream makes me very ill. But the yonanas machine turns frozen banana pieces into a soft serve like texture. You can also use it for frozen peaches, berries, add Peanut Butter or Protein powder into the mix. It's great.

      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. 🤞
