Thank you ladies for you response. I am feeling a little better now that some of you experiencing the same issues. I was stalled the entire month of Oct. drove me up the wall; I thought my hubby is going to have hissy. all the monies I have spent for the supplement, Protein Shakes etc. Well, I learned from a site "Inspire support group"..To do a back on track. Went back to 4 shakes a day, Water, and no food the first day..well I felt so good after the first day I had decided to do it for another day..Started on a Wed, and by Saturday I had lost 4lbs..Blew my mind. I am no longer stalled.

The start the gym on Monday. Haven't been very active so far, but things are loose. LOL..How do you get those neat little tracker..so helpful. I thank you all for responding. Look forward to reading you post, and your advice. Have a wonderful day. Theresa from Magnolia, DE..

@@Theresa64 \I've been at a stall for 3 weeks....BUT I have heard that going back to Protein Shakes and fluids with no food for a day or two will help. Also adding even 30 minutes of walking or gym helps..NOT!!!!!..but I have been eating a bit more food. How does 900 calories a day at 209 pounds put you at a stall? I don't get it. Frustrated.

Hi all, brand new to this site. Frustrated..have only lost 26 pounds since sleeve sugary. Dr. says it's okay, since I didn't have much to lose and it will take some time. Prior to my pre op diet I was 252, post op I was 237 and now I'm 211. Went from a size 26 to 20 pants size. My sugary was Aug 12, 2015. I follow exercise, Vitamins, Water and Protein requirements. Just don't know why I haven't been as successful as some. Any suggestions? Thank you.

We are in the same boat. SW 249. Sleeved 8/24 and only down 37.5lbs. At my last visit doc said I was doing well and keep up with my routine. Just that I plateaued early but it will start falling off again. Hugh!!! I can't wait til that happens!

I broke rules this weekend. Had an espresso, a gin and tonic and ate closely to drinking. I came home from holidays and gained 3 pounds. Feeling really bad about my decisions but I didn't feel any ill effects from making the bad choices.

Hi all! I was sleeved on 8/25. I've lost 33# post op. I've had several stalls. I have found that I do much better when my Protein is around 100 grams. I have a shake most mornings and triple zero yogurt at night. I have cheese and almonds for my snack. My protein during the day is usually chili, chicken, salami. I bumped up my cardio which has helped. I lost 3.4 # this past week. I'm 5'2 and have 57# more to lose. My goal is to have it off at the 9-12 month mark. I lost 30 preop so I'm thrilled with my results- I have a shape now! Not just a big blob!! Lol!

      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.
