  1. Hey guys just came to vent a little! So I have been stalled for about 2 weeks now, and to make matters worse I gained 2 pounds this week:44_frowning2:. I am only 7 weeks out so this is really frustrating. I still should be in the "honeymoon" phase, right? I have started working out about 2 weeks ago so I can help the weight loss process along and stay active. I guess I just thought the first couple weeks after surgery the pounds would just fall off but I am so wrong! Anyway, I am happy with the weight that has come off so far (26 pounds with the exception of the 2 pound gain) and loving the fact my clothes fit way better than they did 7 weeks ago!!! I won't let the stall and gain get me down too much though, I just needed a place to vent to people that understand my struggles:). Happy Friday everyone!

      Hey jenndog. My pounds aren't falling off either. I've only lost 30 pounds since surgery Nov 22/16. I get quite discouraged too when I look at what others have lost. I've come to the conclusion that it's more than the numbers on the scale. It's about being healthy and you are 26 pounds healthier than when you started. Comparing yourself to others can only set you up for disappointment. I know it has for me and I am trying to realise that I am not everyone else. Happy with how far I have come and what I've accomplished even if it's not the miracle melt that I was expecting. Hang in there and be good to yourself. ?

      hi There! I am also 7 weeks out and stalled for 1+ weeks. It's frustrating. I was advised to stop weighing myself daily, but I can't do it yet.

      Good Luck!
