I'm snarky, grumpy, discouraged and generally just over this whole sleeve thing tonight. I think I'm PMSing too. I've been on these boards for months. I've read everything to prepare myself. Yet I wasn't exactly prepared for just how frustrating this first stall was gonna be. Please, tell me cutting 80% of my stomach out was a good idea and that this will eventually work. I know I'm whining. How can the human body eat so little and not lose weight???????

I'll go to bed now and hope for some kind of improvement in mood tomorrow. It's gonna get better. Right?

Of course it gets better. It is a stair step progress, not linear. Stalls can last a couple of weeks to 4 or more, but it will pass. Stay strong and come here to vent and be petted. Stalls suck, no doubt about it. Sending hugs.

Stalls absolutely suck. Every. Single. Time. But they do break....eventually. I'm 2+ weeks without any loss. In fact, I'm up a couple pounds. Frustrating, but I do know it will pass.

Unfortunately weight loss is not a steady thing. I wish we had the exact formula for continuous weight loss. The only thing that works for me is just keep doing what worked in the past. Stick with my diet and exercise. I know from experience that eventually my body will give in and start losing again.

Thanks, y'all. Feeling better today. I decided not to weigh this morning. I went about my day wearing some baggy clothes. I stuck to my plan. It is what it is and it'll move eventually. Thanks for the video!
