Plateau already?!



Recommended Posts

Are you serious? I'm three week post-op and I gained 0.1 pounds and I know that's nothing but I got on the scale this morning and gained another pound. I shouldn't be getting weighed everyday but I'm terrified I'm stuck already. Help. What am I doing wrong? ???? is it the fact that I moved from liquid to purée and I haven't had food in so long until now? Ugh. Helpppppp I've lost 14 so far but I'm so scared. Everyone says it should still be falling off.

You'll get many inputs from people about stalls. They happen all the time. Don't worry, you'll be losing again in no time. But you should expect the stalls to happen and sometimes they last a few weeks. Just stay the course and all will be fine.

Everyone fluctuates from day to day because of Water or hell maybe you need to poop but can't yet. Do not check your weight every day, it will just lead to disappointment. Just eat what you're supposed to and do your best to stay active and the scale will go down. I know it'll kill you with anticipation but you need to only check once a week.

Stress doesn't help either, it will happen just follow your plan and take measurements don't relay just on the scale. Your body is still healing and adjusting, for some it seems to just fall of others may be a bit slower but at the end of the first year most all seem to be around the same percentage lost. :)

Three week stall? Search the forum it's all around here. Body is in shock and trying regroup. Did not loose a pound on 3rd week postop. Staying off the scale helps if you can. Easier said than done. I'm exactly where you are. I'm 14 down. You will break through! :-)

      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! 😞
