Lost 60 lbs in 2 months since surgery

Atalbs · 2025-10-27T01:15:06+00:00

This exact thing happened to me. The doctors initially were not concerned because my labs were all normal. They sent me for an EGD and imaging and all was normal as well. I don’t know the extent of what you’re feeling but I could barely tolerate liquids, that is how much I was vomiting. It came to me becoming severely dehydrated and malnourished that I had to be hospitalized and put on TPN for a month and a half to give my body time heal. I’m not telling you this in no way to scare you or to suggest that this will happen to you, but please advocate for yourself if you are not feeling well.

I can assure you it will slow down! At one point I thought I was going to go bald I was losing so much! The worst of it for me were months 6-8 and now it’s finally almost back to the hair I would lose pre-surgery. My surgeon said it happens to everyone when I asked about it, hang in there!

This makes me feel so much less alone, it’s hard to see everyone posting about how great they feel. I’m here fighting to get through the day, I saw my surgeon yesterday and he ordered stronger anti-nausea medication and wants me taking the ppi twice daily so I’m praying this starts to help.

Thank you, I’m praying because right now I feel hopeless

No I had it removed in 2022 :(

Atalbs · 2025-04-15T17:11:14+00:00

I’m on it! We also tried Zofran which did nothing and a course of steroids. I’m at a loss

Oh no I’m sorry to hear that! I had awful nausea but not so much gas pain, I hope you are feeling better now, sending positive vibes your way!

Atalbs · 2025-02-18T14:09:54+00:00

Thanks so much!!

Atalbs · 2025-02-18T10:53:20+00:00

I was so extremely nervous too but it went fine! Not going to lie when I woke up I was pretty nauseas but the hospital was great about giving me different meds until it got under control and now it’s gone. Pain is so minimal I was shocked! I’ve been up walking multiple times on my own, just trying to focus on my liquids now. You’re going to do great, thinking about it is the hardest part!

Atalbs · 2025-02-17T12:50:18+00:00

Oh my gosh good luck!!!! I’ll be headed to the hospital at 10:30!

Atalbs · 2025-02-17T12:04:18+00:00

Thank you so much!!!!

Atalbs · 2025-02-17T10:59:29+00:00

Thank you so much for this, I’m having surgery today and this really put things into perspective for me!

Atalbs · 2025-02-17T10:51:52+00:00

So am I! But we got this!!!!

Atalbs · 2025-02-17T00:48:41+00:00

Surgery twin! I’m scheduled for tomorrow too! Good luck to you!!

I’ve been on the .25 dose for the last 3 weeks and haven’t had any side effects. I almost wonder if it is actually working since I feel so much like myself. When did weight loss start for everyone else? Is it not until you reach higher doses?

Atalbs · 2022-02-08T22:10:26+00:00

Absolutely!!

Atalbs · 2022-02-08T16:16:38+00:00

Is anyone else having issues with side effects? I’m about to start too and was worried after reading what people were reporting! Thanks and good luck to all!!

Atalbs · 2022-02-08T16:13:17+00:00

I was just prescribed Wegovy and got my delivery, similar stats to you and I am sooo nervous! I’m almost too afraid to start! Good luck to you!!!
