Weight At A Stand Still



Recommended Posts

Ugh so I got down to 236 a week ago and went back up to 238 and have been there all week. Been working out getting my Protein an Water in not eating anything I'm not suppose to I knew this time would come where I would stall but ugh it's a poopy feeling to know yer doing everything right and not losing weight. Have lost 32 pounds in 4 weeks which I know is awesome but ugh come on scale. Been trying to do more with myself makeup an doing my hair which I didn't do before to feel better, it's amazing how much the scale has over you. Been debating throwing my scale out and just forget weighing myself.

I know your pain! I've weighed the same all week. Right now to me the surgery wasn't worth it but I know it will be in the future!

Yeah it's frustrating and I'm nauseous and tired and I called in to work today kinda regretting surgery the last couple days but I know it will get better trying to be positive. I think I hate my job too right now.

Can I join the club too !!!! My weight has been the same for the past month and a half :angry:. I too follow diet, exercise like crazy, get my Protein and Water in. The scale has just not moved and I am getting really freaked out. However, pants that were tight are now loose so something other than the scale moving downward is happening. I am OK with it because weight is just a number that is easily to get obsessed with. I am still positive that it has to move again at some point... geezzzz I work out a a hour and a half most days, jog 2 miles, speed walk, eliptical, run with my dogs etc. etc. eat all the right foods etc. I even increased the intesity of my workouts and wear a heart monitor to make sure I am in the fat burning zone... please scale move just a bit.. please !!!!

The scale hasnt moved for me this week either. It is hard to accept because I am only five weeks out! I have started going to the gym so I am trying to focus on making working out a habit so that I am not worrying so much about the scale.

There will be many stalls, try not to get too frustrated. It doesn't mean this isn't the answer.... The stall will break. I was in a stall for almost 3 weeks in the beginning but then it broke and I started losing a pound a day. Sometimes it helps to change up your diet and exercise for a few days. Eat a few more calories and exercise with more intensity. One of my stalls broke when I did a physical fitness assessment for work (had to push myself really hard). The next day I lost 4 pounds. Your body is still healing and might be in starvation mode. Just be patient and try to stay away from the scales for awhile. Good luck!

      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! 😞
