3 days ago I was 300.8. I was so excited but I've been battling getting under 300 for about a week now. Yesterday I stepped on the scale n weighed 302. I didn't panic till I got on the scale today n was back up to 303.

I'm pissy now!!

WTF......

I am trying my hardest to get under 300 but I'm not having any luck.

Please.... I'm open to suggestions...

Help!!!!!!

Thanks for helping us keep a proper perspective about the scale @@gowalking .

I've been struggling with getting below 200 for over a month now. Even tho the scale isn't moving much except up and down within the same range, the inches are still dropping , therefore, I don't sweat too much about the scale. It is frustrating, tho, to be working so hard and the scale not budging.

@@meSparkle83 - keep on keeping on!! It will come down!!

I just finished the 48hr pouch test and loss 7lbs I had picked up

It reassured me that I had not stretched my band/ pouch and got me over a stall prior to gained weight. Lots of water and protein.

You are right the scale just will not act right.........

What is the 48hr pouch test?

I would hit a stall for 2-3 weeks. Then suddenly 5 lb loss. Hang in there.

PS I weigh myself twice a day. I don't want to find out at the end of the week that I put on 5 lb. Easier to compensate when you may have added 1 or 2 lbs.

I hope it is moving for you again. sometimes I just want to throw my scale out the window... stalled for the last 3 weeks. my first real stall. I won't let it get me down. we shall prevail.

What are you eating? What/how much exercise have you done? Maybe we can find some hidden fat or sugar for you to weed out!

How far out from surgery? What is your protein, caloric, water intake? Are you eating anything you shouldn't be? Are you exercising?

I am pretty miserable about this myself... ive been between 240-243 for the past 2 weeks. its so frustrating, because logically i eat WAY less than i used to. I am almost 6 weeks post op and ive lost 17 pounds only since the day i went in to surgery. On my post op diet i lost 7 pounds so i guess a total of 27 lbs since april 16th. I feel like i am slacking. Pretty dishearting.

I've been trying to eat a lot of Protein. I've found myself drinking a ton of watered down cranberry juice, lemonade light n drinks like that.

I'm going back to my shakes, Water & crystal light now because something has slowed, stop n add pounds to my body..

It's frustrating..

I walk everyday and now I've started jogging and stairs.

I'm a little over 2 months post-op.

I don't eat much so I know I'm under 1,000 cals. I'm hitting close to 75-100 protein n yes, I've discovered potato chips ( I wasn't too big about them pre op)

Yes I exercise daily.

My scale isn't moving but I know I'm shrinking be cuz clothes aren't fitting but I want to see the numbers..

Cranberry juice has a lot of sugar in it ... typically it's "cranberry cocktail" and not really juice. Good job getting back to the roots. You got this!

I stalled for 2 weeks, added more protein and calories and viola, lost 6 lbs last week! You can do it!!

Can you give me a few tips on meals? I'm trying to add more calories but I am at a loss of healthy foods.
