Frustrated :( No weight loss....



Recommended Posts

My sugery date was 11/26 so just a little over 3 weeks out and its been a week and a half and I am losing I actually gain a pound then lose it...

Its so frustrating :( I am not seeing any movement, isn't too soon to be at a stand still.

Im doing mostly liquids and introducing some soft foods daily little by little. I have at least 60g o Protein each day as a bare minimum and on good days Im doing about 80g.

I am walking everyday 1 mile in 30 minutes which is sometimes hard but I push myself and I sweat and my heart rate goes up.

What am I doing wrong :(

Keep in mind your body is in a complete shock right now, it has entered starvation mode and is holding onto everything. Trust me this will pass and you will start losing. Everyone is different so be patient with your new body.

You don't need to weigh yourself everyday either if you have been. Your body is confused right now about why you have bee eating practically nothing! I've learned to take it one day at a time. Be happy that you made this decision and that your on your way to a happier healthier you!!

In a couple months you will read this same post from a new post opter and will chuckle to yourself.

Trust me we have all been there and we have all come out the other side! Don't get discouraged you did not put the weight on in a month and it will take your body time to adjust. You will have many stalls during this process, but they are only temporary and I have really noticed that when I stall on the scales I am still losing inches. Keep your chin up!

I am with you feeling it is coming off slowly. its hard when I went in my surgeon said I would lose 100 pounds in 4 months and I just don't think that's possible. I wish he wouldn't have said that to me. I am losing like 2 pounds a week.

I'm really upset and trying to figure out what i'm doing wrong

I think I know i have been eatting crackers and honey roasted nuts

i'm going to stop and see if that helps, I get 80 grams of Protein a day

Nikki its ok to eat low fat saltines just make sure you are not eating a lot of salt because that will make you hold on to the.fluid

      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... :(
