wheres the loss

Ok, I am in no way freaking out, YET, but I am a bit frustrated. I was sleeved may 3rd. I feel wonderful. I am active, still struggling to et water in due to pain and nausea from the water, but prior to surgery on the 2 week pre diet, I lost 20 pounds. I get sleeved, yak for 3 days, come home on liquids, and to date have only lost 1 whole pound. Am I doing something wrong, or missing something? I just though the stall didnt start till 2 weeks, but this is a bit disappointing I guess If I am honest

Im 9 weeks in.... Since my surgery I have struggled with 3lbs. I will lose a lot and then stall an go up and down three pounds then I will lose. Then I will do it again... Up and down 3lbs. I asked a lady that had the surgery and she said to drink lots of water bc she does the same. I know you said you get sick, but I did what she said and it worked. I know everyone is different though. Just a tip for you. Good luck! :)

you HAVE to give your body TIME TO HEAL....... you will GAIN, you will lose, YOU WILL GAIN....... do not just go on the # on the scale....... it is NOT accurate......... you will LOSE INCHES but GAIN #............. do NOT be so focused on the #.......... you will go WEEKS and not lose a #.............but your INCHES are MELTING!!!!!!!!!!!!.................. do what you KNOW you are suppose to do............drink that water...... Holler if I can help.......... do NOT FOCUS on THE #

You probably still have fluid retention from the IV fluids you received in the hospital. I gained 14 lbs of fluid from that but it came off in around a week, and then I started losing "real" weight. Hang in there and try not to weigh for at least another week...and drink as much water as you can and walk as much as you can.

That's great you los 20 lbs on the 2 week pre-diet!

I'm guessing your body is still adjusting to that huge loss and you will see another drop soon.
