Lost first week after surgery, stalled the past 2 weeks



Recommended Posts

So, I had bypass a little over 3 weeks ago, lost like 14 pounds the first week but have been stalled since then. Surgery weight was 265 pounds, have been at 251 for the past 2 weeks. I am currently on pureed/soft foods. I ran my daily food through MyFitnessPal:

Calories 491

Carbs 36

Fat 10

Protein 71

Sugar 8

I am taking in 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) of food at each meal. Any idea what might help?

Thanks!

I’m four weeks out. First week I lost a lot of weight. Second week some weight. Third week no weight loss. Fourth week no weight loss. Today the scales moved! I was really worried when I stalled and thought I was never going to move on the scales and didn’t believe what I read about the stalls. Hang in there, give yourself time to adjust. It’s easier done than said I know!

@kordie welcome to the stall. Happens to pretty much everyone. Just keep tracking, exercising and getting in your Protein and Water goals. It'll break.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
