Help

DONT WORRY. I just started losing again too after a few weeks. I think I only drop 4 lb's then all of a sudden it started to come off. Your body is still adjusting and when you move into the different food stages your body have to adjust also. Just keep eating right and get some exersive and the weight will start coming off again soon.

Thanks i was worried thought was this surgery worth it

It'll take time for sure. I had those few days too lol. My wife told me to stop worrying about it and as soon as I did I lose 5 lbs. We just have to stay positive. I have to keep telling my self Ive lost 50lbs in 42 days and that is still amazing. But like anyone I'm still going to worry about the next pound.

A month feels like FOREVER... I'm one month out from LB surgery and I'm down 13 lbs but given what I've eaten over this month I feel like it ought to be 2X that amount. Slow and steady that's what everyone says and it will come off and as my wonderful husband reminds me - it sure didn't take me 1 month to balloon to my all time highest weight (that was the day of my surgery).

So, keep on doing the right things and breath and I'm sure the weight will come off - at least that's what I'm believing.

Cheers!

Thank u for motivating me again

My surgery was the same day as yours. I stalled out a week ago; actually went up slightly and have been inching my way up and down around about 4/10 of a pound. I think it's totally normal, if totally annoying. I noticed that things stopped going so fast when I moved from clears to full liquids. But the overall trend is still down, and like the posters above say, it took a long time to get up to this point. You got this.

I just posted my frustration on this exact same thing last night. I know all the research, I have read others' experiences. Still, it is upsetting to know all you have gone through to get here and only see a couple pounds difference. ( I have only lost 13lbs since 10/21 sleeve date) It is especially tough when you read posts from those who have lost 20+lbs in the same time frame. I just have to be patient, which is not my strong suit. LOL I keep saying to myself "slow and steady wins the race".

Roo, I lost my first 10 pounds prior to surgery, and it looks like you lost way more. I think it's normal that the big jump comes first and that we fight for each pound afterwards. I really only started losing in the 2 weeks before surgery. So it stands to reason that I would have lost around 20 pounds from 10/24 on. I really don't believe it will come off like this ever again. And as I think about it, it NEVER has come off like this before. I think I'm in this little bubble where all of a sudden I think a 10 pound weight loss per week is normal or something. Even MyNetDiary, which I am using for tracking, tells me that with the number of calories I am eating I can expect to lose about 1-2 pounds per week. Isn't that crazy?? It's such a huge change, and for 1-2 pounds per week? But on the other side of it, 1-2 pounds per week for a year is 52-104 pounds, or more than I actually have to lose on the high side anyway.

I think it's amazing that you lost 35 pounds prior to surgery, so give yourself a huge break! I have to believe that as we follow the program we will each eventually be successful.

I have to believe that because otherwise I'd cry.
