How much weight have you lost?
Hi there,
I lost 20 lbs during the liquid phase but as soon as I started the mushies I gained and lost the same 5 lbs for FIVE weeks!!! I was so frustrated. But, during the sixth week, I lost 5 lbs.
So, since surgery (06/01) I've lost 29 lbs.
I'm a little disappointed that the surgery hasn't done more for me. I still get hungry and I have to exercise everyday (swimming and weight training for 45 min). I really thought it would be easier than this but I'm working my butt off... literally!
Even tho the scale hasn't moved much, I have lost 3 pant sizes... so I'm happy about that.
I totally empathize with you... keep working that sleeve and the weight will come off.

OHH! sore point for me too! I had surgery 6/28, and lost about 20#s, then once I started eating I haven't lost- the same 2-3 #s lost and gained over and over!! I watch what I eat, I log everything (food, snacks, water) on my phone app, AND I go to the gym nearly everyday to move- elliptical, Zumba, yoga...and yet not seeing the scale move. Have lost a pants size since surgery, and an inch here and there (arms/thighs & 1/2" on the waiste) but thats it!!! how frustrating!!
Ok it feels good to know that I am not alone I thought i was going crazy because i was at this stall. I had surgery on june 20 and i have lost a total of 46 lbs. That inludes the 13 lbs i lost preop. i know i have lost inches and clothes size i have also realized that i am losing my breast my bras are getting very loose. I'm following my diet getting my protein and liquids but i will not give up i will win this race.
My all time high I have lost 56 pounds.
From day of surgery 42 pounds.
For whatever reason Aug was only 9 pounds and I stalled a few times as I got close to 200. Now things are speeding up

I had surgery 6/21 and I've lost 57.3 lbs.
I have my 3 month Dr's appt on Wednesday and I'd like to be down to 60 by then.
I went from a 24 to 18/20 up top and 26 to 24 on bottom. i'm also 6'0 tall and extremely bottom heavy, so losing from the bottom will take time. I went from a 42D bra to a 38 C. I've also lost 27 inches overall, 8 coming from my hips alone!
I've been going to the gym from week 4 and I'm very happy with my progress. I'm on track to lose 100lbs by the end of the year which was one of my goals (100lbs in 6 months).
