I am 6 weeks post op and I have not lost any weight in two weeks. I am down 35 pounds since sugery, but I am eating still bland soft foods, and drinking Water, and drinking my protien shake. Why the stall?

It's so frustrating! But, you will start losing again... your body is just adjusting! I've had so many stalls and it's driving me nuts... but I'm just trying to be chilled and go with the process. Hope things move soon for you! :)

Yeah, for me my weight seems to melt off in spurts. I'll stall for a week or so and then 20 lbs will fly off in the next two weeks. Then I'll stall again for a bit. Then it all flies off. Seems to be a cycle.

I'm 6 weeks post op, not even 20 lbs down since surgery, and had a higher start weight than you. You are doing AMAZING! You are losing a tonnnn of weight very quickly - as long as you're sticking to your diet, getting your liquids and Protein and exercise, your body WILL catch up! 🤗

I’m the same, 6 weeks out and hit a stall. It’s so frustrating! I’ve decided I’m only going to weight myself once a week. L x

      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.
