Totally normal. I would stay the same # for 3 days and drop same # then drop. Your body could be in shock it will drop again... No worries! Keep doing what your doing:)

Surgery date 7/25/12

Ive been losing every four days or so..I don't lose for days and then lose five pounds like magic. I'm trying not to get obsessed. I was bummed...lost 27 lbs since surgery and then I realized that's a pound a day! I lived and died by the scale for so long I'm just not going to do it anymore.

I noticed that I would lose inches yet the scale would stay the same. Then all of a sudden I dropped anywhere from 2-5 lbs. So my scale is either my watch slipping over my hand or my rings slip off the finger so I have to take a link or two out of my band and put my rings up or have them resized. I also yo-yo my food intake. Once I stall I either increase my intake or decease my intake to make the metabolism to kick into gear, since it is the one that actually stalled. Also increase excerise some additional minutes.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
