I've been reading that some people lose inches & not so much pounds...I can only imagine how mad you feel. You said your clothes are fitting better...Maybe stay off the scale for a few days...And keep trying on those clothes.

Im 2 weeks post op and I havent lost a pound nor are my clothes fitting differently. I work out at least an hour 5 days a week and I eat mushies 3x a day. I cant believe my body isnt responding. It does make me so mad sometimes. I hope it changes or I just lost several thousands of dollars.

Remember to be patient during the first 6 weeks, concentrate more on your body healing...the success will come with time. Keep on making positive choices and you will succeed. I know sometimes it seems like a slow process, but its so worth it in the end. Stay strong!!

i had my surgery 4 weeks ago. I lost the first 2 weeks after surgery and now have been at a standstill. I am hating the scale. I am following my food intake very well. I am using a lot of will power to stop eating. From these blogs i see that we will start losing more when we get our adjustments. Mine is not until Nov. 9th.

I had surgery 27 days ago. After losing 23 pounds during preop, I have gained 5 pounds back after starting solid foods. And, it has just held steady at that 5 pounds in the past couple of weeks. Don't worry...we are in bandster hell (oh, yes, I am starting to feel it). Fills are just around the corner!

Thanks everyone...I started exercising more and eating 3 small meals a day consisting of egg beaters, tuna, and veggies.....Maybe this will curb my hunger? I hope so...I can't wait for my fill!!!!
