When will we know and was the slogan every picked in the other forum for the t shirt idea?

Today was my 4th month post op appointment and boy or boy what a disappointment, I weigh 249 same weight since November 29th , but what was most disappointing was the way the surgeon talked to me, he bust in the room and begins with your honey moon period is over you should be down 50 pounds or more , what have you been eating, evidently not what your supposed to, this is a tool and you are not using it correctly and goes on and on , then I began to show him my food log, to show him I'm actually meeting my protein and water goals but he goes I have never in all my over five hundred patients seen someone eat and drink properly and haven't lost , are you Journaling this correctly , then said I want to see you in 2 months I want you down 40 or more pounds and got up and began to walk away , didn't even go over my labs with me, my constipation concerns or what prescription he ordered for me being as though my iron was low and my vitamin D , don't get me wrong I'm happy that I lost 20 pounds but I've lost more on my pre op die in this same amount of time frame , everyone keeps saying embrace the stall well , I embraced it and totally over it, and the ones that are saying it don't understand my frustration because I haven't met or seen one person on these forums that lost as little as me and been on a stall this long, this early on, and no I'm not competition with no one but I feel like this is not normal to have such a low weight loss but doing everything right, I feel like all of the other times I've went on a diet ...... A FAILURE

No you did nothing wrong. The red numbers are just color coding that helps you and I to know that your weight was carried over from the previous week. If you look on the top right hand side of the spreadsheet you will see what the color coding are. ok thank you so much for clarifying that, I was a bit worried lol

Why are some of the numbers red, does it mean I did something wrong?

249.0 for yesterday's weigh in (stalled)

I'm out of town for business, I will weigh in tommorow morning once I get off my flight and back home

I was sleeved 9/14/15 & only lost 20 pounds and I will be 4 months post op next week and been on a stall for almost 6 weeks, I get all of my water and protein, I keep hearing embrace the stall but it's so frustrating this early on especially when I'm doing everything I'm supposed to , to lose the weight, thank you so much for sharing your story, it lets me know I'm not alone , I know all too well , how you are feeling

Ive been on a stall since nov 29th, I been stuck on 249.4 , I don't gain but the scale doesn't move , so believe me , I completely understand your frustration

Im in , starting weight 249 Goal 234. Good luck everyone and congratulations on all of your progress !!

thank you, and congratulations on all of your progress

I meant I was sleeved 9/14/15 , oppsie

Just a rant, I'm a positive person for the most part, I was sleeved, 9/14/15 , my surgery weight was 269, I exercise 3/4 xs a week but walk a mile or two, 4-5 times a week, I get in all of my Protein daily, sometimes even more, same as with my Water, but I been on a stall for a month, and 3 days, I don't weigh myself everyday, I tried everything drank/eat more/less, excercise more/less , everyone keeps saying embrace the stall but I'm worried that stalling this early for this long, is a concern and I stalled at 3 weeks for 3 weeks , not to compare myself to others, but has this happened to anyone else , what did you do, I read the entire thread "embrace the stall" I feel like imma be ebracing it till 2017 lol ....I'm glad and grateful that I lost 20 pounds , I rather it be off then on, but is that it ? I'm so discouraged. I probably stalled longer then what I think but being as though I only weigh myself 1-2 times in a month, once at the drs, once at home Ill never know. Happy new years everyone.... RANT OVER lol

How is everyone progress going, congratulations to everyone

I had surgery the same day, your doing excellent, I lost 22 pounds so far, I wish it was more but a lost is a lost and I rather it off then on

hello, can I ask what vitamins do you take now, I ask because I take the gummies and I checked and my current vitamins don't have thiamine in them and what foods contain thiamine

I was sleeved 9/14/15 & I'm constantly stalling, hw 298 Sw 269 Cw 249 I guess I'm considered a slow loser being as though I only lost 20 pounds since surgery but I feel so fricking good , best I ever felt and I'm no longer my heaviest 298 , and a lost is a lost , so whoot whoot lol. Congrats on all of your progress Everyone ????
