Stalls are quite common and it is well documented that many have there first stall at 1 month out. The best thing to do is to realize if you are following the plan that your Dr. gave you the weight loss will continue, stalls are normally just your body adjusting to the changes it has made. Stick with your plan even though it doesn't seem to be working at the moment, I know this is hard for anyone who experienced the yoyo of dieting prior to surgery, but if you are eating less calories then your body is burning you will lose weight. It is helpful to do measurements because a lot of the time when the scale isn't moving you will find you are losing inches. Good Luck and stay positive.

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate your encouraging words! I am gonna wait a week before I weigh myself again! Haha That all makes sense... I'm so happy to have this forum to talk to people who have been through it!!

Thanks again and you look Awesome!

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
