14 days after WLS



Recommended Posts

Hi.

I'm 14 days after WLS.

Have lost 13 lbs in last 10 days.

But somehow I'm stuck now.

Still on the full liquid diet, try to count my calories but still got the feeling I'm not loosing anymore weight.

Anyone with same problem?

Would love to read your experience.

Thank you

Don't have a lot of information about you, it would be helpful if you filled in your profile...hightest weight, surgery day weight, current weight, height...all this gives context to your post and helps us to tailor a response to you.

So if I understand correctly its been about four days since you have lost scale weight, but in the 10 days before that you've lost 13lb??? That's great and above average for the stage you are at.

There will be weight loss stalls along the way, one of the major ones is the three week stall (though for some this can happen before three weeks and for others well after).

Please take the time to fill in your details.

Stalls are normal and part of the process. You've just hit your first one. Relax. It's okay. Stick with the Protein and Water and you'll be losing again in no time.

It happened to me, too. It’s a stall, and there’s nothing to be done but follow your plan and wait it out. It’s discouraging while it happens, but it’s normal and it WILL end! I dropped another 8 pounds in a week when it finally ended. Hang in there!

Hi there - also 14 days post op and I have only lost 5lbs. I am just trying to remain chill. I was on the pre-op diet for 3 weeks and then an additional 3 days of only liquid (I have a big liver that really needed to get out of the way!) and have been following instructions to a T. I am on pureed foods now and really looking forward to "soft" foods starting Friday. Am doing okay with the semi-solid foods but have to check in with every bite to make sure when I should stop. All in all doing well I think just the weight loss is frustrating but I am just keeping in mind that I signed up for a life long solution and I need to just trust the process. Appointment with my medical team tomorrow so I will also see what they say. Good luck!

How long have you been on the pureed food?
I'm starting my pureed food phase tomorrow for 2 weeks.
Let's see how it goes.
I'm so fed up of this liquid diet honestly.
Looking forward to pureed food.

On the mobile app, you can update your stats by clicking “Profile” on the bottom right and then selecting “Patient Information.”

On the web site, click on your username on the top right of the screen, then click “My Surgery” under settings. Then click “Progress” on the left sidebar.

Hi.
I found "my surgery" on the web site but it doesn't allow me to edit.

Hmm, that’s weird. Maybe try to do it on the mobile app.

Instead of going to "my surgery" go to "profile." That should allow you to edit.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
