I don't know how many times I stalled. The one thing I know for sure is that scale will keep moving down. For every person who seems to be losing weight so fast and steady there are twenty people complaining about stalls.
When you are six months out and have lost 50 or 60lbs, those stalls feel like nothing at all. By then, you will know first hand that stalls happen, and you just keeping doing what is right and let them pass.
Sorry I didn't do it sooner.
My only regret is the misconception I had about how life would be after surgery. Before surgery, I had a lot of 'last suppers' / 'food funerals' because I thought I would never be able to eat normally again. Instead, I have found that I can eat my favorite foods, but I do so in normal size portions.
Hey Scotty, I was sleeved on the 1st. And having the same problem.I'm feeling well, a little weak, but all and all doing good.I sometimes think about the 24oz. Porterhouse, the double portions of lasagna w/meat balls and pork and half a loaf of Italian bread to go w/it (I'm Italian), the Chinese buffets, and wonder what did I do. I talked to my wife of 42 yrs. About it and she told me to just step out side ur self and look at all the food I used to it. 1000's of calories a day. I was killing myself. I'm slowly getting into the mind frame of food is to sustain not to gorge. After only 14days I'm off my B p. Meds, my Water pills, my heartburn Med., and down to half my diabetis Med. I should b off diabetis soon. I'm down 30+ lbs. Already. We will b able to go out to dinner again and I will b able to eat almost everything I like again but smaller amounts. I'm OK w/that knowing I probably added 10 yrs. To my life.its not fun being fat, but it does make me happy for every lb. That I lose. I live in so. FL. So its going to b gr8 going to the beach again, being able to play w/the grand kids, getting out of my recliner without help, even putting on a pair of socks w/ ease. Good luck w/ur journey and I hope all goes well 4 u.....phil
