Stalled since April 1... God awful April Fools joke



Recommended Posts

Hey everybody I was sleeved on March 6 of this year my weight when I went into surgery was 261 pounds my current weight is 238 almost 5 weeks later. When I went to the NUT on April 1 my weight was 239 pounds I am a bit discouraged because the scale has not moved and I am in a bit of a slump. I eat food when I can and I'm sure to get all the Protein in first if I am unable to eat all of the protein I always drink my protein so I am never lacking it. You know that weight isn't going to just fall off but I thought that I would be losing a little faster than this. I am just a bit discouraged right now I am not having anything that I am not supposed to be having very low sugar very low carbs I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Your body is wired to freak out at such a low caloric intake and hold onto everything it can for self preservation. It's biology... Or chemistry. Or both. Ride the wave. Switch things up. Track your intake. Made sure you're fueling yourself well.

Btw, huge difference in your fave already 4 weeks out. Celebrate you NSV's.

I'm with ya. Sleeved 2/27. SW 260. Been at 237 for 2 weeks now. I'm doing everything I'm supposed. It is frustrating but I'm just riding the wave.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
