I have been fooling around with the same weight up a few ounces, down those few ounces, and then maintaining for a couple weeks. I have read about stalls over sbf over again.. and knew it would happen.. but needed to vent!! Ugh!

I know I should be super excited about my 60 lb loss. But I still have a good amount to lose. I would rather lose a few ounces a week than see myself gain and lose and gain and lose.. that's crazy! Grrrr

Ok.. rant over.

Hope everyone has a great new year!!

Same place as you. Im floating at 55 pounds lost. But I am hitting a plan to workout and get more water and protein. Im frustrated and I want to kick it in again.

I'm in the same boat with 41# lost and then STOPPED! I'm upping my working but seem to be hungrier! Need a routine.

When I stalled on the scale I still lost inches. Keep up the good work!

I've had so many stalls and plateaus over the past 10 months... I have learned not to panic... You are losing inches. If you are hungry it's probably head hunger... Get out of the house and away from the food. Keep working the plan and the weight will start falling of again.

I have been stalled for 2wks

It seems like when I stall nothing will effect the weight loss...not protein, not water, not exercise...so, we just put on our big girl panties and keep doing what we know is right. Eventually...which can be weeks at this point...the body will respond. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be.

Thats good advice. We expect our bodies to do as we want all the time. Remember when we force fed our bodies ungodly amounts? It has a right to rebel now and again . It will start losing again once its adjusted.

We do expect the weight to "fall off" after surgery. Or at least I thought that. I tried to mentally prepare myself for a slow loss because my sister had went thru this and it took her awhile to hit her goal. I have only given it 11 weeks. So.. when I look at the whole picture I am thankful. Its when I look at the daily or weekly results and see that its slowed or stopped it gets me a little wound up.. until I remind myself again that this is not a miracle its our tool and will help us through this journey forever not just today!

Wow that's a great loss! Great job!!!! I'm at 110 at just under 7 months, hope to be like you!

Hello Everyone,

Reading this thread really helps. I had my surgery on 11/15/12 and I can't help but worry whether or not this will work. I've lost 26lbs but I'm stalling. I'm in the gym almost everyday. I feel like I'm 95% spot on with my diet. It just gets frustrating at times. Nice to know I'm not alone

Gee whiz I think most people lose faster than me!! I hope I can be down another 30# in January!!! Y'all inspire me!!!!

Patience.. that's what I have to learn!!! (And stay off the scale)

The stall finally broke. Lost 3 lbs this week.. I will take it!!

Thanks to everyone that replied.. I know this is a journey for each of us and I love love love hearing from everyone! Its not only inspirational but I've learned so much!! Happy Friday!!
