And now time for a stall!

Yup picture me on that scale every morning, with my fingers crossed and then a palm to my forehead. This is a week now. Reallly?! I am about to throw my scale out. However, I have noticed inches. I am far from giving up. I am now 4 1/2 months out. I've lost 95 lbs and I feel great! I just think my body needs some time, but so close to 100 lbs?! Only 30 lbs to Onderland!!

Congratulations on your weight loss so far. If the scale is causing you too much stress, set it aside and only weigh yourself once per month.

I weigh myself daily each morning when I get up. But I do not beat myself up when I read my weight. I use it as a tool to tell me if I am headed in the right direction after my experimentation with food.

But many surgeons and nutritionist seem to recommend that you do not weigh yourself daily.

@@TXMissy I know how frustrating it is! I am also about 4.5 months out although I started much heavier than you. I also just came off a 10 day stall, and then had the best one week loss ever (even better than right after surgery). I agree with @@James Marusek about putting the scale away and focusing on the inches like you already noted. As you said, your body is adjusting and I bet you will see a nice drop on the other side of this stall. I have found this is a great opportunity to focus on NSVs and other benefits of our process, but I know this doesn't make looking at the same number day after day any easier. Good luck.

I'm in the same boat as you! Almost 4 months post-op & hit a stall the last week. I am close to onederland as well & nearing my hundred pound loss. {Sigh} Bumping up my fluids, tracking protein like crazy, and walking every day. Here's to hoping we both see a boost soon!!!

My surgery date was April 27. I weigh every Sunday. Today I hit a stall . I didn't lose anything this week. It really stinks!
