10 wks out and only lost 26 pounds from SW.



Recommended Posts

I really don't understand why I'm not losing like I should. My starting weight was 296 and now 270. I get all my Protein and Water. I workout twice a day and nothing. Has anyone experienced this? Will it get better? I'm feeling maybe I should have had the bypass

Only 26 pounds in 10 weeks? Only??

Yeah. You should give up. You are totally doomed. :(


KIDDING!! You are doing great. Focus on the good. Twenty six pounds in 10 weeks is NOT a slow loss. Seriously. I promise.

You are seriously talking nonsense. I am NOT kidding there.

A true stall is three weeks of NO scale movement. Not up, not down, NO movement. You've not had time to stall being only ten weeks out much less "stall like crazy".

I don't mean to minimize your feelings, it's OK to feel the way you do, but that doesn't mean you aren't speaking nonsense. :D

Stalls are a normal, natural, and necessary part of the process of losing a substantial amount of weight. None of us lose at a constant or steady rate.

One thing that I am curious about is that you are working out twice a day. That may be excessive depending on what you are doing and what you are eating. Have you talked to your NUT and/or a trainer about making sure your nutritional needs are being met and that you have enough rest/recovery time between workouts?

Embrace the Stall!

Slow and steady is always good. I Stalled after two weeks. I was working out everyday and actually not getting enough calories once I played with that a little I started losing again about a pound to a pound and a half a week (average) grab a 26 pound bag of anything and walk a quarter of a mile and say only 26 pounds. I think you are doing amazing. I had to learn quickly this is my journey and not to compare to others. Just thankful I am on the journey.

Even though you may not have had a problem before surgery, I would still recommend you talk to your NUT to make sure you are eating enough for your exercise intensity.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
