Spent 6 days on a ranch with no cell or wifi, walked 2 miles a day, a lot of uphill and stuck to my post op diet. Lost 0 lbs..... Frustrated, but trudging onward.

hang in there! It sounds like the dreaded third week stall. I actually didn't stall at that point. I'm going through a stall right now that has lasted over two weeks. The scale will move again!

I had a stall that started day 1 of my third week post-op. Scale didn't budge for 14 days. It's finally moving again!

Doctor gave me the ok to do some easy walking now so I'm jumping in. Did 1.3 miles this morning, nice and slow. I'll be happy if I can get 20 miles by the end of the month.

I just can't let y'all have all the fun.

20.5 mile bike ride in the gorgeous october weather! Must have been feeling the urge for some civil disobedience cuz I rode on the Schuylkill River trail which skirts the edge of Valley Forge Park, currently closed due to the government shut down. However the trail was open so I guess it's considered PA's responsibility and not the Feds. Bummer, was really hoping to stage a protest! NOT! Everyone is doing so great! Oh yeah, that puts my total at 60.1.

Everyone contributed 10 to participate. About 50 entered so 500 pot. yay!! I won't lose a lot of weight, but I am going to strive for workout improvements. I want to get better at double unders, kipping pull-ups and rebound box jumps. We will be checking this same workout in 1 month.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
