Weight Loss

I am three years out of my lap band surgery and just crossed my 100 pound weight loss figure. So happy with that. All the hard work has well been work it. Here is my question regarding weightloss.

Does anyone experience periods of time where no matter what you do, no weight loss occurs? I can go months at a time eating right, working out and nothing changes with the numbers. Then, all of a suddent I am down three or five pounds in one week. Anybody out there have that same experience?

I am very curious to see if anyone understands why this might happen.

I was 5 months with no weight loss then 7lbs in three days. Sometimes if you eat too much protein it will cause no weight loss or weight gain. I think our bodies are just adjusting to all the things we never did so they want to be rebels at times and say no. However I think Im back on track with losing again. Hope I dont get stuck again for a long time.

Congratulations! 100 pounds is a tremendous success. You're proof that persistence does pay off.

Yup, you have described my life. Lose 3 pounds one week then go four without anything. I have grown used to it and I will get to my goal soon but I have not attached a time line for that. It will happen when it happens.

KUDOS for losing 100 pounds. You go girl!!

Thank you. I eat Protein at every meal and sometimes just protein. I will try adding a little more carbs and grains to my daily intake and see if i notice a faster drop in weight. Thanks for the encouraging words.
