Thank you for this
I went from 420 to 308 in 5 months and started freaking out a couple of weeks ago when I noticed I was stalled and even went up a couple. This video helped a TON. THX

I am 6 years post op, before my gastric sleeve I prepared my body as far as nutrition. When I got the information from the nutritionists I started with my low carb diet and finding the protein shakes I would enjoy. When I had my surgery there was no problem with me adjusting to the diet and in the process I loss 20 lbs before my surgery. After my sleeve I loss 150 lbs and continue to work and maintain and yes I still go to the gym 5x sometimes 6x a week. Water aerobics is my favorite

Good morning Doctor Alverez, I am 7 days post VSG and have a question regarding how long does it take after surgery before you should see a weight loss? My SW was 263, and after surgery I was 269.8. I realize this is normal, due to extra IV fluids, gas , inflammation, but 7 days out and still the same. Is this also part of the normal VSG process? Or should I be concerned?

Thank you for all this information

Today it whas the first time after sugery that I stept on the scale, I am 9 days post and lost 20 pounds. I whas suprised that it whas 20, I tought it would be around 10

I went from 124 to 98kg in 2 months

I am glad about this video . After losing so much weight and still looking good and enjoying comments about my weight loss, last month I realized that I have gained 4 lbs and as someone will say 4lbs weight is nothing to talk about, I freaked out realizing how much I weighed before my gastric sleeve surgery with Dr.A. My behavior changed that month I was still eating small meals but unhealthy meals, and no activities and hardly any movements. My body started aching. I switched back being active, eating less carbs and moving more and now I feel myself again. No body pains. This video talks about what I was going through.

Thank you, Dr. A. This is exactly the video I needed. God bless you!

"No one is born an expert but you can get help from an expert".... Powerful words! And you are exactly 💯% right!

Thank you for these videos Dr.A your videos has helped me a-lot through my weight loss journey I had Gastric Sleeve on 6/20/2023 and Im almost 4 months out from weight loss surgery and almost 17 weeks. again thank you.

Great information and explained where I think anyone would understand. I would like to know more about if you have gained back a significant amount of weight does it increase your hunger because your stomach now is probably larger or stretched and how to get back on track to losing weight again. Thank you, Dr. Alvarez! 😁

I'm almost 3 weeks post-op and recently swiched to pureed foods, adding carbs to them. I gained 1 pound and I was really worried. I decided to stop weighing myself every day.

4 months post op, I’ve hit a plateau, weight has just stopped dropping.. I needed this video. Thank you Dr. A. ❤

My stall has lasted from January until now. And it is July 4th and I don't know what happened because I do not eat like a pig. I don't eat a bunch of sugar. I don't eat a bunch of carbs, but my body has completely stalled and I don't know exactly what to do

Thank you so much 👍👍👍

As my Dr. Told me this is all a mental game so to speak. Not to freak out when u stall. Dr A. you are a relief for all of us going thru this journey. Many blessings to you!!
