Been there done that its not working went from 600 to 1000 in this long 7 weeks yeah done the 1 gal of Water as well done the workout mix up even tried the no workout for a week that sucked btw. Only thing I have not tried is skin a chicken dance in my panties in the snow as I blow Bubbles. Because unfortunately I'm allergic to bubble stuff .

LMAO!!! Has anyone seen the Wal-Green's commercial with the lady and her husband who is eating the donut!?!?! That is SO me and my husband! I love that commercial!!!!

Honestly y'all....the bitching and whining about mean people is getting way worse than all the truly mean statements ever were. Accept or ignore....move on. Don't let it keep bothering you and certainly don't keep rehashing old news.

Many people on this page are extremely rude. I try to ignore them.

Well, since I have been averaging 8,000-9,000 steps, 10,000 was an accomplishment. I work out on an elliptical machine or treadmill for an hour averaging 3.5 miles per hour and that does NOT get me to 10,000 steps. So, I will have to get faster (more efficient) if 10,000 or 12,000 are the numbers to get to.

I love my fitness pal everyone should look it up so many friends on it . Lol I'm mombrb on fit pal

I forgot to update my nut said I never broke my last stall to drop 2/3 lbs and be back in a stall is not braking the stall. So today is 7 weeks in a stall at 217/213 it goes up and down and why she said it never broke So out of my 15 weeks from being sleeved I've stalled 10 of them lmao yeah so I'm the slowest and it sucks. It will come off even if I have to drop a other 25k and get it sucked out lmao .

Do you all journal your daily intake of food?
I use My Fitness Pal and I like it. It keeps me honest tracking calories, fat, carbs and sodium.

Not a strand here lost. But wonder if its coz I'm a HUGE slow looser 37lb in 15 weeks and in a 7 week stall.

I wrap a pickle in a piece of low sodium ham and low sodium Swiss cheese and microwave for 10 seconds- like a Cuban sandwich minus the bread

I was cleared to eat anything 5 weeks out

I have 14lbs to reach 'Onderland'. There's a chance I won't be around to enjoy it, as I am sure I will pass out when that needle reads 199 or less!!!

Finally broke the 3 week stall!!! Down to 216 as of this morning...200 is so close. :wub:

No I don't take meds for it. I use it to my advantage I'm an artist and designer I do 3D Modeling for movies magazines and video games so my ADD,ADHD works for me it's good to be random in my job

I'm so sorry you are struggling! I was sleeved in Mexico and so I don't have a nut. I have researched and researched what every one else was doing and what seemed to work the best. There are so many nuts out there that say sooooo many different things. I was sleeved 9/27 and I'm down 50 pounds as of today. What works for me.... I average about 5-600 calories a day. Mostly dense Protein. 64 oz of Water. 60+protein and try to stay less than 20 carbs. The only time I have had too many carbs.... I stalled.
Now saying that... That's what works for ME. Every person is different. And I'm not saying that will work for you, but if what your NUT is recommending isn't working it may be time to try something different, or find a new NUT.
I really wish you the best!! Just be patient and hopefully you will find what works best for YOU!!
You haven't failed!!!

I know you're frustrated and expected better results so far. I want to try to encourage you that at just over three months out, a 31 lbs loss is actually a very good loss! You're losing about ten pounds a month! I know some people have lost faster, but that's not a bad loss at all, especially considering you've had several stalls and still lost that much. I think you are going to lose just fine, it just may take a bit longer for you than for some others.
Just curious, have you tracked your carb intake at all? Some people are super carb sensitive and they need their carbs much lower than others in order to lose. I'm not sure if that's the case for you, but it's something to look into. Don't get too down on yourself. This is a long process; a marathon, not a sprint. Just keep plugging away doing what you're doing and the weight will come off.
Another thing, don't say "I have failed" because that kind of negative self talk will only hinder your progress. The more you tell yourself you have failed, the more likely you are to start acting like you have failed and that can't be good for long term progress. Don't beat yourself up, from the sounds of your post, you haven't done anything wrong! You are doing all the right things, therefore you haven't failed. Keep your head up. Take things one day at a time. Remember that even a slow loss is still a loss. hugs.

I can fix this problem for you. Trade me scales . I can't wait til I step on one that says 170 lol

Stunning just stunning!!!!

Before sleeve 254 one month later sleeved and a 2week Diet 244
Day of sleeve 9/26/12 244
Today 214

I am new to this forum. It would be nice to talk to someone about my surgery. I am 15 wks out & super disappointed. I lost 30# the first week & 2# a month since. I had better losses before surgery. Any suggestions?

So the trick is, if you want to be a size 8, start buying a bunch of size 10 clothing. Right?

I know it gets frustrating but your losing girl!! That's all that counts!! What was your weight before surgery?
