I feel your pain. I'm one month today and my scale has been STUCK for the last 2 weeks. I haven't been cleared for vigorous workouts because I had beginning complications... So all I can do is walk...... This sucks!!! .....

But we gotta stay positive!! Soon! This will have just been a bump in our road to thinner days!!

Keep your chin up. I only lost 8 pounds in the first two weeks after surgery. Are you taking in enough fluids? Believe it or not your body will retain water if you are dehydrated. That can keep the scale from moving.

Hopeful what's your beginning weight? The more you weigh the faster it comes off. Maybe it will just come off slower for you. Don't regret it, you will start seeing a differrence soon. Stay positive!

I eat. I drink all day long (sips). I walk. My beginning weight was before surgery was 248. I am 5'1. I am now at 221. But at a stall since surgery (5/23/12). Its just so frustrating. Not even 1lb gone.

I was 247 before liquid diet. surgery day 230 left the hospital weighing more than my pre diet weight. 9 days post op and now down to 227. It is a weried process but don't give up.

3 weeks post op and can not get passed the 220lbs. Preop 275 lbs but I think I am scale crazy I have been weighing at least 2 times a day.

OMG!! Congrats! Thats incredible! I had surgery may 9th and have only dropped 40lbs from my surgery date weight... What's your secret!! ;)

My surgery date was May 30th and I have only lost 20 pounds. The scale has not moved in 2 weeks and I'm getting frustrated:(

Patience grasshoppers! LOL Stay focused on the protocol and know that the weight WILL take care of itself. It is law!!

Don't get frustrated it will happen stress doesn't help and you shouldn't be watching those scales like a volcher. Drink your fluids, if you don't drink enough your body will hold on to it so drink drink drink. Walk as much as you can but don't hurt yourself. The weight will fall off, you got to remember when we were in hospital they pumped us full of liquids so when we got home we were dropping water weight first. I know it's hard to be patient but just have Alittle faith if your doing what doctor said you'll loose the weight.
