When do you weigh your self? This morning I weighed @242... This afternoon just for giggles did again and came in @240. Weird I thought.

Personally, morning. But I think you can weight yourself whenever you want, just do it that same time everyday. That will give you a better idea of your actual weight loss. Also, If you are weighing yourself a lot during the day, you may not always like what it says.

I refuse to be "tied down" to my scales. I am pre op and right now I am weighing myself every morning just to make sure I havent gained any..I have a son that lives in the next own over who will come over often I have told him by the time I get home from hospital I want him to hide the scales and when he comes to visit I will weigh myself.....If I do what I am supposed to do its going to come off. It didnt all come on in a day and its surely not coming off in a day I dont want to have the roller coaster ride of the ups and downs after the surgery, you usually gain a little right after from what Ive read and Im not going to let the scales control my life....well thats the plan anyway...LOL

I am addicted to my scale. Always weigh about 2 pounds more at night. Now I know I can get on my scale and if I weigh my morning weight at night I will usually lose in the morning. I am addicted to weighing!

I the same way! When I weigh the same as or less than I did in the morning I'm always excited to weigh the following morning because I know for sure the scale will have dropped again

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
