Hey all! So for the last 3 weeks I have been at the same weight! I only weigh once a week, I'm not a scale freak! But I've switched up my diet a little bit, more Water , more Protein, diff Proteins, my sugars are barly any and my carbs are never higher than 10-20 and I never eat bad carbs , bread , white flour ! What's the problem Ahhh! I'm 12 weeks out!

Im 4 weeks out and have hit a stall I cant loose a pound for the life of me now. I was so excited the first 3 weeks I was loosing 5 pounds a week. I think by reading these blogs the stalls hit several times through out the journey. We just have to get through them as they come our way.

Yep. Stalls are like lovers. Your first will probably not be your last.

You're fine. Your body is adjusting and holding onto those calories. Keep doing all the right things and the scale will move soon.

I had a 3 week stall too at about week 5....it sucks but it will turn around again. Don't eat less calories trying to break the stall! I did weight watchers years ago and when I hit a stall they told me to eat 100 to 200 calories more for a couple days then get back on track......do that at least every 5 days until it breaks. Your body thinks its starving..its adjusting to everything. If you eat a few more calories every now and again it will get back on the losing track knowing you will feed it again soon enough. It worked every time on weight watchers. But, with the sleeve its really hard to eat even 100 calories more in a day with as little room as we have now and the need to meet all of our Protein and water! If you can do it...it works.

I've had two stalls with no change in eating habits/exercise. But I'm down over 110 lbs and all my co-morbidities are cured. My weight loss trajectory is still in the downward direction. Don't sweat it! You'll get there!

      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! 😞
