Sleeved may 12, 2015

5'7", 236 start

At one month I had lost 22lbs.

I had a 4 day stall in week 3. My first big stall was from weeks 15-17. I lost a couple pounds in there but not compared to anything I lost prior.

I have lost a total of 60lbs in 4 months. I went back to basics.

Everyone is different . Your body will stall when it needs to.

1.) Take body measurements and record them. The scale may not be moving, but you may be loosing inches. I've lost 43.5" total between my bust, hips, thighs and arms only.

2.) Caution on comparing to others and their loss rates. Use them as motivation or reasons to ask your support team (surgeon, program, etc) what factors may be causing a different rate and how you can improve

3.)don't give up. Some stalls can be a couple days. Some can be weeks. If after a week goes by and you see no loss at all.... back to basics for us. liquid diet, then soft foods, logging Protein and Water, examine exercise, etc...

Good luck!!

I was sleeved the same day as you, and I've lost the same amount!! I'm also feeling a little frustrated that it's so slow haha :)

      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.
