I lost 60 lbs in the first 3 months, then it slowed down.

As long as you're eating/drinking what you need to as your doctor ordered I wouldn't be too worried.

Chill don't expect magical weight loss in just a few weeks. Also your body is probably freaking out having just had a major surgery. My doc told me not to even worry about my weight for the first...

I myself also just had oral surgery with sedation and my "restrictions" are still the same as before the procedure. I don't know what what advice to offer besides I doubt it was because of sedation.

Hey all I just wanted to make this thread to ask if anyone had any advice or suggestions for how they have or have heard of ways to deal with the loose skin that comes from the rapid weight loss?
...

I wouldn't be too worried honestly, gaining a few pounds over the holiday or a vacation isn't the end of the world, just so long as you work to get those pounds off. Though by the looks of things,...

First 2 weeks you'll probably feel really bad, this is a mix of both having completed a major surgery and your body adjusting to your new stomach. When I was sleeved I felt really shitty for the...

grats on the progress numbers, keep up the good work.

If your doc is letting you eat puree and you can keep it down you're lucky. I could only drink water for the first week and couldn't drink anything thicker than the protein shakes for another 5...

congrats my 6 month mark is today (Not counting days or weeks) so congrats on your weight loss so far, keep it up.

most people I see complaining about the weight loss taking longer than they expected are the same people who openly admit that they:

1. Aren't drinking enough water
2. Eating bad foods (The same...

Everyone gets stalls, don't worry too much about it truthfully. As long as you're still eating the right food and drink plenty of water and avoiding the high sugar drinks everything should work out....

I would ask your doctor, I looked at the nutritional label for quest bars and noticed they have nuts. My doctor has forbidden me from eating nuts ever again, so I could never eat a quest bar. ...

If you're working out you need to recoup those calories you're burning, 800 calories a day isn't enough for that. As for water my surgeon said you can never drink too much water after surgery. I...

congrats, keep it up.

first 6 weeks is sadly going to be pretty shitty to put it bluntly. You're going to feel hungry and tired as your body gets used to the new stomach. Trust me when I say you'll be tempted to "cheat"...

After 103 days for the first time in about 7 years I'm no longer considered "Obese" by the BMI scale. I'm still overweight but I'm really happy about getting over this hurdle I've been struggling...

I haven't lost any friends becuase of my surgery. I've gotten into verbal altercations with some of them after the first month of surgery, but that was due to me getting used to not eating the foods...

My surgeon believes their is no such thing as drinking too fast/too much. If you can keep it down then go for it. He's more worried about me and his other patients getting enough liquids than about...

Completely normal to crave food after not eating for 3 weeks. Just from my personal experience, eating that food won't make you feel better no matter what your mind is telling you now. You'll most...

You didn't stretch your stomach. Your stable line would've split open so soon after surgery before stretching. I'm surprised your surgeon is letting you eat pureed food so soon, but if he OKs it...

You can drink carbonated drinks after the sleeve, they're not going to tear it open unless you start drinking them for the first 6 weeks. I've had a few glasses of Champagne a few weeks ago and no...

I'm a guy but I would talk to my surgeon and primary care doctor about what you should/shouldn't eat during your pregnancy. They'd probably give you the best advice.

I'm 2 months 1 week post op.

2 month mark was when I noticed eating stopped feeling weird. But as "Numbers" said, gotta make every bite count when you eat because you'll only be eating at the...

I think losing 37 pounds in less than 2 months is pretty fast weight loss. I say as long as the weight is going down and you're doing what the surgeon has asked you to do, you shouldn't feel...

Well my doctor had me on just clear liquids for the first week (Water, 0 calorie powerade) week 2-4 I could only drink protein shakes and clear liquids.

He didn't want me drink broth or puree till...
