same thing for me. i have been told it because i dont consume enough calories.

but i think it is because the body is in shock. it will continue burning the fars for sure. i only took down 1.5 pound in the last 2 weeks.

It happened to me too, then I began to lose again. I think stalls happen through the whole process. I am 2 1/2 months out and lose a steady 2-4 lbs a week then all of a sudden 2 lbs overnight. I eat about 700 calories a day

For me, I can go days without wanting to eat at all. I drink however. I do calorie count a preop habit I can't break. BUT I can see through it that when I eat I lose. To be blunt when I eat I also "poo" Lmao its true. My weight loss clearly picks up when that happens. Soooo, my personal gage is calories and frequency in the bathroom. It's a signal to me that .not eating enough again. I am at 5 lbs a week. I walk, take the stairs at work and drink Water all day. But if I don't get over 500 cals my metabolism full stops for up to 5 days. :P hope it sheds some light.

I've been very frustrated too. First week after surgery, down 10 pounds. Next 10 days, nothing.....except the day I was UP one pound!! I know our bodies go through changes and we should expect times like this, but it still SUCKS!

I dose suck. But it will move. Take pictures too because that helps us see changes the scale doesn't show us. Keep your head up.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
