Glad I am not the only one, I have been so tired this week and yes also getting upset very easy over little things.

But I would not change it.

Sleeved on 9-18-14. I have lost 30 lbs and Thursday 10-2-14 was the first day I didn't have to go back to bed all day. I think it is because I had 2 tablespoons of pureed chicken. I boiled a fresh peach, added chicken then put it in the food processor. It was delicious.

Well I am experiencing the week 2/3 stall! No weight gained or lost. I know it's part of the process but still disheartening.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Not yet....but trying to prepare myself for when it happens...try only weighing yourself maybe twice a month so maybe you will never see another stall...this to shall pass!

I'm experiencing a stall too. I read how much others are losing and I've only lost 12lbs post surgery and I'm not cheating. I lost more in less time prior to surgery.

2morrow is 3 weeks sleeved foe me

I went back to work last Monday n it's been hard cause I'm very tired everyday. I work in sales n had to go back on the road. The upside is I'm down 36 lbs total from 2 week preop diet. The loss has def slowed down when I switch to purées but is still coming off. What is everyone doing for energy? I have a bad ankle and walking for exercise after working all day is still too painful.

Hi! My surgery was September 17th and i have lost 10 lbs.. Was wondering if it should be more? I have it in my mind that this isn't going to work for me! Is that crazy to think that way? I definitely feel like I'm in a stall. Starting weight 212. And I'm a 43 yo female.

I think at some time we all think this but think positive...we are all different and will all drop weight differently....I was September 15 and have dropped 15 pounds...but i will take it...15 lbs gone and not gained! :)

Sleeved 15 September, dropped about 22lbs since then but it looks like I've also hit the 3 week stall. Not too discouraged as it's coincided with moving to pureed foods and walking 2 1/2 miles to work each day so I suspect (hope) it's partly adding muscle from exercise while still losing fat. My clothes are still feeling looser.

      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. 🤞
