* Sorry I do one day Zumba the other days 2.5-3 mile walks

*scale NOT MOVING but inches coming off!

MY TURN! Lol! Maybe you can help me... Surgery weight was 280 and current is 248-250. My scale goes up and down 1-2lbs for some reason... I have a 800 calorie diet ( which I never meet) I workout 5 days a week average of about 409-600 calories (45 min Zumba/60 min walking).... I've lost 30-32lbs! Almost 6 weeks out The question is why doesn't my scale move consistently? And if I burn 500 calories and intake only 600 my net is only really eating 100 calories worth.., us this bad? Good? That's the part I'm most confused with... I feel like I'm working my butt off scale moving inches definitely coming off... HELP PLEASE

Yes exactly! It's very difficult... Honestly that's the only thing I miss the most Learning to move past it. I'd rather be heathy then have my old habits if drinking while eating... No wonder I was able to eat so much before... I could drink 2 glasses of tea and not even be done with my food. Crazy!

Hi everyone! 8/29 surgery date... 280lbs as of last weigh in .... 248lbs I have lost 32 pounds since surgery. Ive had a few stalls along the way... so I am just being patient and moving forward =)

I think at some point we will all have a moment where we shouldn't have put something in our mouth... The great thing is that you have taken accountability for it and now shake it off and get up again... Today is a new day =) Don't worry so much on what happened or what you ate but how you learned from it. This is all a process and its going to be really hard at times yet other times we are going to not give a second thought. YOU CAN DO IT!!!

I was the same at 3 weeks now I'm 5 and I rarely have problems with food

I was craving them around 3 weeks out! I had a few sliced ones and chewed them really good... Haven't had craving since

You can see them on your newsfeed but nobody else can... I've checked with my husbands account and he can't see I'm part of the group hope this helps! However if some are not comfortable it's completely understandable...I just love all the great ideas and support

No, they can't. It's a closed group

No it's a private group they would have to be part of the group to see posts... I thought the same thing.

Just search "August sleevers"

You should join August sleevers on FB! I've learned a lot from everyone else's experiences Congrats!!!

Not that you all are weird! Sorry!

Thank goodness I thought I was the only weirdo! I feel hungry every 2-3 hours! My stomach actually feels hungry... Honestly I hate that feeling it's weird but it's more bothersome now then it was before. I wish I didn't feel it as often

Ok cool! So I have to go to website to see them.... I will check it out! Thank you

I know how you feel! Not sure what happens at 2 weeks :/ have you started puréed or soft solids?

Hi! Yes I drink decaffeinated teas... Sweetened with stevia.... I also have a little creation of crystal lite lemonade with one packet strawberry Jay Robb Protein... It tastes so yummy! I even made Popsicles. It has 25 grams of protein and tastes like sherbet....no joke! So I sip on that every other day

I wonder why that happens... I know how you feel!
