Hello!

I am currently a college student and I had surgery on March 14,2017. I have lost 25 lbs since my surgery. My body has went in complete shock. Two or three weeks after my surgery I had a period.... because of my birth control, I haven't had a period for amount SIX YEARS. During that week my weight was all over the place. Now that I am about one month and a week out, I feel like my weight lost is not where it should be. I have been working out almost every day since I had surgery but the weight is not falling off like everyone else. I don't know what is going on.

Can someone help me!!!

Take a breath and relax, everyone's body reacts to surgery differently. No matter how hard you're working whether you see it or not your body is changing. Everyone goes through stalls and nothing happens overnight, remember the surgery is just tool the rest of it's up to you but keep in mind you do have to be patient (no pun intended), I had my surgery one year ago and I've been stuck in the 160's since October. Relax and if you have any major concerns about it call your surgeon they and their team will have the best answers for you that anyone can give you. Good luck and give yourself some time.

Don't compare your journey to others, our bodies react differently. I'm six weeks post op and down 31 lbs. was sleeved 3/13/2017. 25lbs is a huge loss!
