  1. I’m in the same boat. I’m down a total of 106 pounds. Thirty of which I lost prior to the surgery and the six or so from surgery and I keep going back and forth with the same ten pounds. I need to lose at least another 100lbs to get into the ballpark of where I want to be weight wise. I work out and even started intermittent fasting and just keep gaining. Nothing is working anymore. I’ve cut carbs I keep portions small and yet gain and gain. I’m so disappointed in myself now I don’t know what to do.
  2. Well I’m going on week three of my plateau and I’m starting to lose hair again. Can’t lose weight but my hair oh yeah that’s definitely falling?. I guess I’ll just wait it out and probably get a hair cut if this hair loss keeps up.
  3. Well I’ve lost 65 pounds since my July sleeve. But now I’ve hit a plateau for about two weeks now. This is the most frustrating thing ever!!! I’ve gone back to cutting down my calories so I’m hoping this will pass soon.
  4. Well I’m eating ground beef, chicken, shrimp, eggs and some bacon. I’m so over the protein shakes that I stop drinking them on the weekends. I think I’ve hit my first plateau but then as soon as I type that weight will drop again. I’m down 41lbs so far. I was sleeved July 18th. How y’all doin?

  8. No I haven’t measured myself yet but they did measure me at the doctor’s office. I’m sure I’ve lost inches because my bra’s and clothes are all really loose now.

  10. I’m just doing five pounds arm weights nothing too much and I’m sitting when I’m doing it. I hope he releases me to go back to work I’m going nuts here at home. Who would’ve thought I kinda miss my job??????
  11. I believe I hit my first plateau too. I’m down 28 pounds since starting this journey. I know you’re not supposed to weigh yourself everyday but I have since the surgery and the last few days I’ve held steady around the same weight. I’m sure it’ll change next week when I go back to work.
  12. I go back Thursday August 2nd for my follow up. I just had to have something of substance. I actually miss chewing lol.
  13. I was sleeved on July 18th and yesterday I tried a bite of steak for the first time. I’m so burned out on liquids I need to move on to foods. I did start lifting weights and I think I hit my first plateau after losing 28 pounds.
  14. That’s what I did before my surgery too. Mani pedi and got my hair done. Bought everything I thought I might need and got stuff ready for the hospital.

  22. I’m super anxious about Wednesday. I’m so worried I’m going to wake up and they didn’t do the surgery. I keep looking over my labs and wondering why my numbers are the way they are and will everything be good enough. Anyways, it’s the final count down!!!

  28. Ten pounds is quiet a lot in two weeks. That’s really great!!
  29. I’m definitely in the “over think everything” club. It’s either the nurse in me or the I’ve had this surgery yanked away from me twice thing. Anyways trying to relax and wait for Wednesday to get here. I did eat bacon a time or two on this diet but that’s my only cheat. Which is probably why I’m so nervous. I’m going to try and work Tuesday which is the all clear liquids day. I already apologized to everyone I work with ahead of time if I become a hangry B.
