5 weeks out & only 21 lbs down :(

Total since 11/2/12 I've lost 36 pounds. But since 11/7 I've only lost 21! :-( super bummed about it. Tomorrow is my post op follow up and I'm hoping to get the clearance to excercise. Has anyone experienced a stall once they went in soft foods? I'm totally bummed right now.

    This is typically what happens. We get in a stall so that the inches can come off to catch up with the lost lbs......Don't worry, you will be losing lbs again really soon. You are so not done.........

  • Why on Earth would you be bummed about losing 36 pounds in 5 weeks? Stay positive!!

  • Girl YES!! That is amazing! Pre-sleeve I would gain weight while I was trying to lose, so every pound gone made me super excited. LOL. Just do what you know you are supposed to do, and that weight wil

I was sleeved on 11/7 & have lost 23lbs. We all wish the weight would come off faster, but at least it's coming off! I'm just happy I'm going down rather than up! Keep up the great work & put away your scale for awhile... :)

I was sleeved on 11/5 and I am only down 16 pounds post op. I don't think we should worry about it. It will come as long as we focus on healthy eating.

Oohh okay thank u all so much!!!!

Hey!! I was panicked about the lengthy stalls as well. I went from 312, down to 280 in 6 weeks. I exercise like a mad woman and work 6 days a week!! I was being tough on myself. 32 lbs was a great amount of weight for that time. I finally promised myself I would only step on a scale at most 1/week. It's helped me emotionally. You will loose the weight!! At least you're skin will bounce back a little better with slower weight loss!! You are right on track. Just think about how far you have come in such a short time really :). Wish you much success!!
