If your in a slow down (stahl) it will pass it is normal. Stay the course and it will come.

I know but I had been stuck over a week. .I have 11 days to get off a few more pounds. ..my butt had got to get into my bathing suit.

Hey everyone. Just a quick update. I am 4 weeks post op. My high at pre op diet was 228.9. Weight at surgery was 222.2. My 4 weeks post op weight is 202.4. A total of 26.5 lbs lost. So happy about it. I thought it would have been more than that. In 4 weeks I lost 19.8 lbs. Is this about average? Where was everyone else at, at 4 weeks post op?

I hope not. I started with the lap band in 2012. Starting weight was 261 lowest 174. Then had lots of problems. Went back up to 228.9. Had it removed then did the sleeve. Love it so far. It seems like I lost faster with the band, but as long as I am losing I am good.

We all lose differently. I have lost 17 lbs post-op, after 29 lbs lost pre-op. I was sleeved 10/7.

I was sleeved on 10/6. Have lost 28 lbs at 1 month out. But 9 was pre-op, so around 19 in a month. We are about the same!

Turkey, green Beans. And I saw a bariatric menu for Thanksgiving and it had an appetizer that I think I'll make: Apple Brie Bacon Crumbles on a toothpick. You put a piece of Apple, them the cheese, then bacon pieces. I think it sounds good!

Amboyd,

I too was a band to sleeve revision on 10/5. I stalled for nearly three weeks even though I was walking nearly every day for about 30 min and calorie intake no more than 800 a day. I was very frustrated to say the least! (I even noticed a two pound gain during that stall) I have my next four week check up is tomorrow and I'm not getting on my scale until I have been weighed by the surgeons office scale.

My husband had not seen me since surgery until this past friday and he could tell I had lost weight, and I for the first time could see it too. So hang in there, I think because we are revisions our starting weight loss is slower.

      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. 🤞
