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?

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.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
