I started out my journey in January weighing 287. The day before my surgery I weighed 268. I am exactly one month post op and I weigh 249. I've not even lost 20lbs and I haven't lost a pound in almost a week. Anyone else had a stall in weight loss at one month post op and what did you do to jump start it back?

Any suggestions would be helpful.

I was in a stall for almost 2 months, it started 3 weeks after surgery. I changed up my diet and work out routine. I started to eat more calories and carbs and decreased my time at the gym but I'm slowly increasing that back up.

I hit a stall for a week (week 3 post), lost a couple of pounds and it looks like I have hit another stall. Today I am 5 weeks 1 day out....

I am 6 weeks post op today and i have been stalled for about 2 and a half weeks. I adjusted my Protein and decreased my carbs and i finally have broke my stall. Its sad to me that i still have to "diet" hard core with carb intake but this is just how my body is. I cannot eat carbs in a normal quantitiy because I will gain weight. I just got to roll with the punches. Good Luck :)

Tomorrow I will be post op 2 weeks out (I was sleeved on May 29th). I'm on purée foods and average about 500 calories a day. I'm working on increasing my Water intake (I've been averaging about 40 oz. a day- I know I need 64 oz.) While I was on the clear liquid diet the first 5 days, I dropped 10 pounds. But, since then for about a week I've lost nothing. I go for walks but didn't want to push my activity too much since I'm healing. Am I doing something wrong?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
