why the scale plays mind tricks. our bodies change weight constantly and hard to make an accurate reading. drink a 20 oz soda and you gain. pee it out and you most likely lost. i went through that scale habit for alot of years. if i gained, my day was shot. if i lost, it was party time.

you are doing fabulous. just because the scale says you gained, did you? go by your clothes fitting looser and you feeling better.

YOU GOT this GF....only weigh once a week at same time. say sun morning at 9......

I do weigh daily but only record my weight once a week. I sometimess find that if we have done really well eating and exercising for a few days u sort of get a delayed reaction on the scales, not always, and if u have eaten too much it might not show up for a day or two, just one of the mysteries of life i think :)

I should put on my profile that I'm a male. For the life of me I don't remember why I picked the name "DIFA" for here. I'm sure its an acronym.

I threw my scale away and didn't weigh myself for a month! Imagine my surprise when I wasn't freaked out all the time. I did have some anxiety when I went to the Dr's and weighed in, but I had lost 8lb in a month. We did not put this weight on all at once and its not going to come off all at once! Also, Water retention plays a huge roll in what you weigh, stay away from salt and your body will shed those extra oz of water.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
