It's been 10 weeks. I'm down 28lbs since surgery and 38 total. I'm loosing slow and steady. Should it be more by now? I can eat almost anything but not a lot. Milk upsets my stomach still and I stay away from sweets. I started exercising 3 weeks ago to kick start my metabolism. I'm looking and feeling better. Yet I feel impatient about my weight loss. Also alcohol is easy to get down so I'm staying away from that too since it's empty calories. What's going on with you?

I am so glad you posted this! I was sleeved January 27. I'm down 37.5 lbs since surgery and I can eat whatever I want also just very little. I wish I couldn't eat some foods and sometimes I think I should have has bypass... I've been walking a little but not as much as I would like to. I started taking diet pills for energy because I'm so tired all the time. Did alcohol make u feel sick at all? I haven't touched it because I'm scared to but I really want a drink sometimes

No problem with alcohol (no beer) I feel it faster and get way too tipsy too fast if I'm not careful. It's because I can't eat and drink at the same time. I've cut it out to see if I loose more weight without it. I'm sure I will- I lost 1 lb in 2 days.

I have low energy too. I drink liquid whey protien from wall mart near the pharmacy. It's like thick grape Syrup but it helps. 3.5 oz container 42 G Protein and I drink half at a time.

I have been making videos of my journey on utube if you want to watch.

kayakerak I think we are doing great. I'm glad I'm not alone.

It's VSG WLS

My date was 1/21/14 and i am down 26 pounds (yes slow but steady). Dr prescribed B12 nasal spray (In addition to daily vitamins) for energy when i mentioned tiredness. It helped.

Good job all! I was sleeved on 1/27/14 and am down 45 pounds. No complications with any food. Milk does bother me but it did before surgery so am not surprised. I'm just now seeing an increase in my energy level.
