just stay on plan and wait it out. It will break as long as you stick to your plan. I went through that many times..

I had my first stall at 3ish weeks it lasted a couple of weeks. I am almost 6 weeks post op and stepped on the scale and am down 5 pounds since last wed! From my understanding stalls are all aboard of the journey. The faster you lose, your body is going to need to keep up and/or adjust.

I am almost 6 weeks out. I have only lost 10 lbs, since week 2. I was having problems getting my Protein and Water in and I stayed costipated. I went to my support group on 811th. They told me what to do. I guess I am in a stall. It is depressing. I would love to lose faster. I am only on full liquids.

depends on the surgeon. I was on puree before leaving the hospital. Switched to soft foods week three (or four), as I recall...

I had a bypass 2-6. 2 wks prior to surgery I was on a high Protein diet only Protein Shake 2xday and 4 oz protein and veges for my meal wasn't excited about that a good start loss 10lbs prior to surgery. Liquid only day of and 2 days post op purée for 4 weeks. Then soft for weeks. A day o did not adhere and had a bite or 2 of a shrimp and I paid for it. I am sure I plugged my pouch I had severe abdominal pain for 12hr and threw up at least twice. Follow the plan. At about week 3-4 I plateau but it turned around I am down 39lbs. I feel I'm behind but not gaining

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
