How Is This Possible



Recommended Posts

I would find your "magic day" of the week where you seem to weigh less and weigh in on that day only. That is what I am going to do. Doing it everyday is what has always gotten me in trouble before (shame spiral) which lead to more eating the wrong stuff. I can't do that to myself anymore. Never once did I consider "toilet weight" but it is likely that most of the time.

So pick a day...like Saturday...and stick to that day...keep in mind (unless you are well past menopause) that there will be hormonal fluctuations causing Water weight too. Do you have a scale that measures muscle/fat content? You might consider investing in one. A good one can run from $70 on up but there are plenty on Amazon. I just got one because I want to see if it's just more Water weight...etc.

Hang in there. I know how frustrating that is. I have the same war with the same 4 lbs up and down all the time. I think I am going to schedule my Dr weigh ins for the week after my period...lol. That's when I weigh the lowest of the month. :)

Yea try to weigh less, 1 or 2 times a week. I know for me I can't even poop more than once or twice a week, that for sure fluctuates my weight!

Also are you on solids? Because you are eating Soup, oatmeal and Protein shakes... I would try more solid things, just in general.. it should help you stay fuller, and takes more work to digest.

:) To be honest no I am 3 1/2 year out. Started out at 304. got down to 217. From april of last year to this past Jan 14 I gained 32 lbs (all my fault not eating right, junk food, sliders, etc.) got back on track as of Jan 15th and yes I chose to go back to liquids with small amounts of solids. Going slow with adding in solids this week. next week will add a little more. I am going back next week Fri to get a fill will ask for 2 of the 4 that was taken out.

WOw, you are doing very well on your menu, mines similar to yours.

Breakfast, 1 scrambled or boiled egg, with tabelspoon of cheese.

snack, Protein bar (200 cals 13 grams protein)

lunch, rolled turkey or ham with swiss and mustard.

Snack, either greek yogurt or string cheese and nuts.

dinner, meat and veges (chicken and broccoli, or steak and cauliflower, or pork and cabbage,,etc.)

I find my meals very very small, sometimes not being able to eat the whole egg or the meat rolls at lunch. It takes me an hour to eat my Protein Bar, so im good on the hunger scale. Lots of Water.

Weekly treat helps keep it all in line for me.

I do get on the scales more often than I should but I seldom gain,(since my last fill anyway) alot of times I stay the same,,,stuck,,lol. Then BAM it drops like 4 or 5 pounds.

Keep up the good work, your going to get there.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
