4 weeks post op and stalled



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved April 14, 2015. I lost 22 lbs in the first 2 weeks. I am now 4 weeks out and I haven't lost anymore weight. Will I ever start losing again? I walk and jog for 1 hour 3-4 Times a week. I don't think I get the whole 60g Protein and all the Water I'm supposed to because I get full but I do get kind of close to the recommended amounts. I'm scared I will b a sleeve fail.

I had surgery on 4/15 and lost 10 the first week, 5 the second, 2 the third and ZERO last week. I know that a lot of people stall around this point so I am not letting it get to me. Or at least trying not to! I only weigh in once/week and am hoping the scale moves even one pound next week. I know I am doing everything right and I'm sure you are too so we just have to be patient. It's hard because I would like to see ridiculously huge numbers every week.

I had surgery Feb 25. I was losing really well until April. I was stalled for over 3 weeks and then WAM! I am back losing again. I just stuck with the plan and my body got the message that I was not starving and it is again releasing the fat!

Believe me, you all are not finished yet. The journey is not over. Keep drinking your Water, get in your Protein and keep exercising. Your body will do what it needs to do and you will soon be losing again. Stick with the plan!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
