Today's weight 219. Down 1 lb this week.

Happy Friday! Current weight 220.6. I'm down some but only what I picked up after the last challenge ended. Started some exercise yesterday, gotta get booty movin'!

Starting my New Year - New Me today! Challenge starting weight 223.6 Challenge Goal 210 Ready to do this!!

Count me in!

Starting weight (this challenge) 234 CW 220 Highest weight before surgery 248. Goal was 210, but I knew that was petty lofty. I'm 6 1/2 weeks out, so I can't snub my nose at a 28 pound weight loss. Any other year I would be 5-10 pounds heavier after the holidays. Looking forward to continued weight loss in new year.

Back to real life today after vacation, weight is 220. Slow & steady wins the race! Won't make my goal by New Years, but it was based on my weight loss pace at Thanksgiving, which was 1 pound a day & only 2 weeks post op. I'll make a more realistic goal for the Valentines challenge.

Grrrr, I'm stuck! Today's weight 225, same as last week. Surgery date 11/18. I'm only 4 weeks post op, I really expected to lose more before hitting a stall. Starting weight 248, surgery day 239. Back to work 2 weeks post op @ 225. Gained 2 pounds, lost 2 pounds and here I sit. Frustrated! Appt today with surgeon, said to keep working on getting liquids, protein & exercise in daily, come back in 2 months. Said they will check my labs & if anything unusual shows, he will call me. This is still sooo hard!

Hello Nov Sleevers. I had my surgery 11/18. I'm down 23 pounds including pre op diet. I've been stalled the last week and a half, since going back to work. I know I'm not getting enough fluid. But it's frustrating! I'm starting my workouts tomorrow, that's got to help. Anybody else hit a stall yet?

Checking in: 225 today. Progress is progress.

Hunter, Roll Tide!

That article sounds like exactly what's going on with me. Thanks for posting.

I should definitely put the scale away. But it was so cool last week to weigh & see 1-2 pounds coming off each day. Now it's not happening like that, which I guess is normal. I just don't know what normal is for me anymore. But it's got to get better right?

Hey everyone, just found this page. I'm Nov 18th sleeved too. Back to work this week and struggling to get protein & liquids in. Haven't lost all week, actually gained 2 pounds. Feeling very frustrated. Back to old feelings of "I'll never lose weight, no matter what I do" ugh! Really need some encouragement.

Hey, I had my surgery Nov 18. First week was miserable, 2nd week better but not good. I was losing about a pound a day. This week I'm back to work & struggling to get my liquids & protein in. Have actually gained 2 pounds. Feeling very discouraged. Hope this is one of those stalls I hear about. Can't imagine I did this major thing and will still not lose more than 20 pounds. Feeling embarrassed, wish I hadn't told anyone at work. But figured it would be obvious when I lost a ton of weight quickly. Not so much. Will try to go to support group at hospital today, but we're expecting bad weather so idk if that will happen. Would love a surgery buddy (or 2).
