No Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

No need to be sad. You are not done yet. Give you body time to rest, eat according to sleeve rules, which are: Protein first, veggies, and a small amount of starches. Maybe look up LilMissDiva's Basic Boot Camp to help get you a new start.......

Believe me, you are not done! ;)

Change it up...whatever you are doing change it up. Add more Water, exercise more, eat more calories, or fat, or cut more calories or fat...give it a try.

You are not done and it is probably just a stall. I would try either adding more calories or cutting a little. Drink more Water and eat more Protein. I thought that I was done after 2 months and a 3 week stall but then it started to fall off again. You body is an amazing machine and sometimes it just needs a little adjustment

Look at it this way 45 lbs is fantastic, Rome was not built in a day, sometimes we concentrate on the weight to much and forget about the inches, with being a yoyo since I was 30 , I have learnt the scale is not always our friend, inches are a big thing also, chin up it will come off, patience, like some said change it up, a tad, it is just your body saying let me catch up with your plan.

Any weight loss is terrific. I would talk to you nutritionist to confirm you are taking what you need to loose. But remember you've done a great job so far.

hate to be a betty downer here, but I hit a stall which stayed with me for 7 months after my 1st year. . .it was very discouraging. After that i only lost an additional 10 lbs and thats it. . .no more. I'm in my 3rd year post op and have been maintaining beautifully. . I have no regrets. If i'm to lose more, great, if not that is ok with me too, cause i feel and look pretty darn good. . So don't fret, it'll come off . . . it's better to lose it slowly anyhow. . . good luck and don't become a slave to the scale. . .

You're not done losing weight. Take your measurements and then re-take them every week or two. I bet that your body is shifting things around. Once it's finished, you WILL lose weight again.

You are not alone. I am also discouraged - take a look at my ticker. Iam going to look at the Boot Camp by LilMissDiva and see what I can do, but I feel much better at only 36 pounds gone in 4 months out. I've tried eating more. I've tried eating less. I do get my Protein and Water, plus Vitamins, in every day. I now sit all day at work so I guess I have to amp it up at the gym. Gotta do something! Being upset about this won't change it for the better. The best to you! Let us know if you find a solution and what works for you. I would love to know!

I'm on the same boat but at 5 weeks and I haven't lost since the 2nd week after my surgery (-12lbs) It's very discouraging but hopefully it'll pass soon! Meanwhile I had my hubby hide my scale, maybe if I don't see how much weight I'm not loosing I'll stop being upset about it! Good luck and if you figure out how to loose again please let us know!!!

We...im 9 months out and down 66 lbs. My weight loss has almost been non-existant since last year. ive upped my excercise, lowered my calories, increase Protein, lowered carbs everything . And my weight loss is still at a snails pace....i am thankful for what ive lost so far. My clotes are falling off of me. I started out size 22 pants, wearing a size 12 now ...but i just wish my scale would be nice to me too........................ but i am thankful!

This is hard, not knowing if my body is done losing weight, but i can't be done. Im not done until i reach the goals i have set for myself. And even if they take longer than a year...im still in it for the long run :)

take care everyone

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
