Weight loss totally stalled post op days 11-19



Recommended Posts

I had gastric bypass surgery on 11/18. My pre-op weight was 252 and coming home from the hospital, I weighed 262 (I think because of all the Fluid build up). On my 10-day post op appointment, I weight 240. However, I am now 19 days post op and have lost nothing since my 10 day post op appointment. Is this normal? I'm following all of my surgeons instructions to the letter! It's so discouraging.

This was normal for me. I went plateau for a month, your body becomes use to what's going on and is holding back. Try increase your exercise a little more AS U CAN TOLERATE, then u are confusing your body with something new. Stick with your Doc orders and nutritionist, don't forget your Vitamins very important and good look on this journey.

Stalls are normal and there really is not anything you need to do besides follow the plan. Your body will ultimately realize that you are not starving to death and you will start losing again.

Dont worry and stay off the scale.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
