Recommended Posts

First 2 weeks post op I had lost 16 pounds...then stall. Was so happy to see that I lost 1.8 pounds at my 3 week post op mark today....

Wanna talk about joy.. that 2-3 week stall is real

I'm cruising on this journey.. (even though I wanna speed).

1.8 pounds at my 3 week post op mark today....

@@NewLA

17.8 lbs down in 3 weeks?

that's wonderful

if you don't lose any weight for a couple of days, that doesn't mean you are in a stall

an "official" stall - you didn't lose any weight for at LEAST 3 weeks

you are now at 3 weeks, down over 17 lbs!!! :)

no stall here!!!

you are doing great

relish (or pickle LOL) the moment!!!

keep up the good work

i'm sure you will

kathy

congrats

Thanks. I hadn't lost any weight since my 7 days out which was July 11...stayed at the same until today July 28th. Hope I broke this stall as my body is healing..

Same as you. 4 weeks post op today and have lost like 16 lbs. but most of it was in the first week and a half. I know the 2-3 week stall is so real but hard to digest it for sure. Hoping to see the scale moving again

I am dying from the last 2.5 week stall I'm in. No measurement changes either and I was sleeved 7/5

The stall moved and I lost 3.4 pounds but that was from July 15th to August 4th. Let's see if it moves. I wonder if my lack of Protein intake is impacting it. I struggle with Protein

Probably.

Getting enough protein is critical for healing and for weight loss.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
