So today I weighed myself and the scale says I gained 2 pounds. I had a rough couple days and I have been eating poorly. Today I'm back on track and hopefully lose those 2 pounds by Friday... Has anybody gained any weight since surgery? I think I need to stop having the 2 Snacks in between.

Mine goes up and down within 2 lbs...I doubt you ate enough to gain 2 lbs at this point

Regarding your diet, you and I are pretty much spot on. I've started doubling up my Protein shakes, generally two scoops of ON 100% whey per 8 oz of almond milk. Down 80lbs as of last week.

Congratulations on the 80lb loss! That is terrific! In recent weeks, I have shifted away from Protein Shakes toward a Quest Protein Bar for Breakfast. I got pretty tired of the shakes after a while and thought that the Fiber in the bars would be helpful. I'm still hitting about 100g of Protein, but a little more of it is starting to come from regular foods.

I was sleeved 11/8. I'm having a hard time getting my fluids in. I use to drink Water with no problem and now I don't like plain water. I add Crystal Light and it is a little better. I struggle a bit too with the Protein. If I don't have a Protein Shake there is no chance of getting it all in.

I've lost 40 lbs and feel great. Still tired but feeling good.

I am glad to hear I am not the only with these issues. It's nice to have you all to hear about it.

Is the Facebook group closed or secret? I have only told immediate family about my surgery. If it is secret, I would love to be added: Robin Czajka.

The group is up and running! Feel free to add me on FB or I'll add you if you send me your info!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
