Though I am still pre-op... I was really having trouble losing anything during my 6 months. Suddenly I have lost 3 pounds each of the last 2 weeks. It isn't much, and I busted butt at the gym, but finally seeing the scale starting to move to the left has me feeling more confident and motivated.

I weigh myself daily. I know they say once a week is best but, for me , having that daily reminder of what I'm.doing keeps me motivated. I don't freak out if the scale hasn't moved. If it goes up I am more mindful that day of proper food and exercise. I guess you can say it is one day at a time for me. I just use the scale as my morning reminder.
