    Little Bill is right. I gain a pound or two around menstruation and then I level out for a few days. However, right after it drops.
    Don't compare your loss to anyone else's. No one can run this marathon for you, and we're all starting from different places with different obstacles. If you stick to the plan, though, you will be successful.

    If you are following your plan, then nothing has gone wrong. Weight loss is not linear, and it is easy enough to stall or even show a gain of a pound or two, depending on whether or not you retaining Water, or even if you haven't pooped for a day or two. This is a long term commitment, not a race, and we all have to look at it that way. I get discouraged if I get on the scale too often. Last week I lost a whole pound over a period of eight days. Then from Sunday to Wednesday, I lost four pounds. And I don't have to deal with the same issues that women have. I just have to live with them.

    I'm not there yet but 26 pounds is nothing to dismiss! That's a big accomplishment. I'm sure others with more experience will have more suggestions but I would say stay the course! Good luck!

    Weight fluctuates for many reasons. You know it's not from what you're eating, because you physically can't eat enough right now to legitimately gain. No worries.

    So I was concerned that there wasn't that much of a difference from before surgery to now.. but after comparing this before and after picture I'm feeling much better! Be honest? Does it really look like I've lost 65lbs?! Thanks!

    Blessed74 got a reaction from schultzie in Difficulty transitioning into puree, any advice pls.   
    3wks after surgery I am suppose to be in a puree diet but it is had to get it down. One tsp of yogurt I am so full for hrs, I can't finish a whole egg. I find comfort still with liquids and I have been sticking to it to get down my Protein in take and Water for hydration. Anybody with this same issues pls. Lost 21Ib.

    Blessed74 reacted to blizair09 in First Day with NO PROTEIN SHAKES!   
    Today, Day 32 post-op, I got in all of my Protein with NO Protein SHAKES! I was able to add fish today (salmon specifically), so that did the trick. And I got to 900 calories for the first time. It took me 14 hours of eating and drinking to get everything in and account for the 30 minutes before/after eating "no water" periods. I got in 910 calories, 17 carbs, and 90 grams of protein.
    I'm sure there will be days when I have to have Protein shakes for one reason or another, but I am going to Celebrate the fact that I am finally in a place where I won't have to rely on them every day!
    Onward!!
