Stopped Lossing Lbs



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Aug.2 and have been in a stall about a week. Trying to ride it out without getting in a funk over it. I really am ready to lose NOW!

I'm newly sleeved but when I would stall on hcg, I would measure and would notice I was losing inches and my clothes would start fitting better. I've found my body has a way of moving things around in a stall.

Ohhh so that is what it is! A stall! I was starting to get very discouraged... now I feel better. I had the surgery Aug. 1st and lost 21 lbs so far (3 weeks in). It so frustrating! I have been watching what Im eating, and walking regularly! Hopefully it will start up again. I do have to say that I have been losing inches though! I measure myself once a week and keep track of my progress. If anything, this is what has helped me through this stall period!!

needed this question too...I am an Aug. 1st sleever and stalled currently even though I am following every instruction about diet and exercise.... it is quite a test of perserverence. I just know there is no way to live like this and not begin loosing again, ready and waiting for the fat to start melting away. Glad I'm not the only one.

I was sleeved August 1, and I've been up and down all week. I know I should put the scale away, but old habits are hard to break. I have a net loss for the week, but I've also had days several days that I gained. We just have to stick with the plan and we will see the scale start moving again.

On a brighter note, I had to go shopping today and buy a few shirts, because everything I have is too big! I went down a full size, WHOOO HOOO!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
