When did you start to stall? I am 2 weeks out and feel like I'm at a stall. Also what was your BMI if you don't mind telling.

My stall started at 2 weeks post op and lasted a week and 5 days! The scale didn't move an inch. I was following my diet and exercising. Then this morning, down a pound and a half! I've heard once the first stall is over you start losing pretty regularly til the next one at 2-3 months out. I'm hoping that's true!

I'm 2 weeks and 1 day post op. I had band to sleeve revision. Up until about 3 days ago I felt like I was on track. I was feeling a little better every day. Then out of no where I'm hit with the worst nausea I've ever had. I was allowed to start mushies yesterday but the thought of any food whatsoever makes me want to vomit. I'm to the point now, where drinks even make me gag. Nothing helps. I've tried phenergen, sour candy, ginger candy, lemonade and nothing touches it. Has anyone else experienced this at the 2 week mark?

I've been changing it up everyday, varying between walking, swimming, hiking, elliptical and Zumba mainly. I have noticed I feel winded/tired easier than before, but I know it's because I'm still recovering, so I'm trying to not push myself too hard. I also use myfitnesspal and it yells at me everyday because I haven't eaten more than 500 calories a day. But it's impossible to eat more with such a restricted diet, I have my diet advancement class the 18th, looking forward to be able to eat more foods!

Hey yall. I'm glad to see you guys hanging in there!!! My surgery was July 1, I just hit 6 weeks post op yesterday! I'm down 29lbs and I am now on regular foods!

For My first meal I had a cucumber salad and a chicken and steak Kabob! Ok so it was like a cube of chicken and steak equivalent to 2 oz. BUT It was delicious and I tolerated it without issue.

I may have this everyday for the next week! That cucumber salad especially! I think I'm going to add strawberries next time!

Not sure when I last posted here. I'm down 29 lbs at 5 weeks post op. My number one thing right now is planning, planning, planning.

Planning is the master key to getting in all your Protein and fluids and keep up with a busy day. Pack cheese and yogurt even if you don't think you'll need it. It's saved me!

Also, everyone notices my weight loss. Most people tell me I look younger, and that my skin is glowing. Best decision ever.

My surgery was July 5 and I just passed the 30 pound weight loss Mark. Working towards 35. Now that I can eat regular food, I am feeling the restriction again. Not complaining, just mains sure I get my Protein and Water in.

I had lettuce and tomatoes with steak...that I chewed really well. It was so fantastic. I have been craving salad! Everything settled great!

@@ChattyMommy30 yes I did! Right at two week mark too. It only lasted for some days because I'm coming up on three weeks in a day or so and it has disappeared except for those darn Protein Shakes. They make me nauseous no matter what. Just give it a week, hopefully it Will pass.

      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.
