How much do you have to lose? Those with a lower BMI and less weight to lose tend to lose slower. Also, you could be eating too much or not enough. Tweak what you eat. If you eat too little, your body will go into starvation mode and not allow you to lose. If you eat the high calorie foods, it stalls weightloss too. I tried something that worked for me for a while...sonic ice with lemon juice and very little salt for taste. Usually broke my stall. Best of luck to you. Don't be discouraged. The sleeve can't help but work. :)

girlfriend

you had WLS about 6 weeks ago - you've lost 28 lbs thats great!!!! really!!!!! :)

you didn't go to bed on a friday night, waking up monday morning with all your excess weight

in the same respect, you are not gonna lose all your weight over a week-end

unfortunately many newbies et alhave unrealistic thoughts on how much you will lose in a time period

you are doing great - 6 weeks, down 28 lbs - be happy - you will lose the weight

continued good luck

"god grant me patience, just hurry up about it" ;)

T, don't get discouraged now. Do a search here on stalls. What you are experiencing now is not only normal, it's necessary. You'll start losing again soon. Just keep doing what you are supposed to & the stall will soon break.

I dont loose on a continued basis either, I go for weeks with out loosing anything but I so notice inches going away... then woosh 5-10 lbs , then go again with a stall. right now I am on a 30 day stall but I lost inches during this time and went down from a 18 to a 16 ...... stick with it follow your plan and your plan

Thank y'all !! I'm going to read and reread this when I get down again ... going to join the gym tomorrow ..

My surgery was 10/11/12, and feel the same. I thinks it not working or I'm doing something wrong because I don't lose lbs everyday. But, I've lost almost 80lbs. Which is not something I could have done without my sleeve. This week I lost almost 15lbs other weeks I've gained 3. I'm trying to just relax and make good choices that will hopefully get me to my goal weigh.

Don't worry your doing just fine. It happens. I was sleeved 11/15/2012 and have lost 26lbs. As long as you are following the diet don't worry. I have gained and lost and stalled for 2 weeks but it picks up just keep your head up!!!!
