I'm so annoyed! I gained 3lbs! I know it's rebound from being sick (kidney infection) But it's really disheartening to see :-(

So back to the grind charting food (just in case I'm screwing myself somewhere along the line!) thinking about cutting all non-produce carbs, I have my 12wk followup in 10 days hoping to be back on track and losing well again.

I'm sorry this is happening to you. . and yes it is very annoying. . . I've been at the same weight give or take 5 lbs for the past 6 months. . . but i look at it this way, at least you've lost weight and your 1/2 way there. . . that's more then you could have said about yourself a year ago. . . good for you and keep up the great work. . . yes cut out some carbs, increase the Proteins, and Water intake and see what happens. . . I'm not a preacher about exercise but if you do that . . . THEN GOOD FOR YOU. . . Its better then what i do :)

Good luck!!!

It's probably just Water weight apple :) You will be fine, there is no way that you gained 3lbs of fat you just aren't taking in enough calories for that. On my 1 month post op weigh in (been in a stall too) says I gained 3lbs and I put it on my status because I have to be honest with myself but 4 days later and 2 of those three are gone. Like TOD says you have accomplished so much don't beat yourself up. Glad you are feeling better.

I hope your completely over your illness and are feeling better :)

I'm at the same place with my weight and I've been at a stand still for the past couple weeks.

I'm not going to let it get me down, and don't you let it get you down.

We are going to do this, and nothing is going to stop us!

Apple, I'm glad you're recovering from your kidney infection. That's a lot for your body. I bet as your energy climbs and your body heals it will start cooperating on the other front! I know people here gave you some good tips. Hang in there. You'll do it!!!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
