I fluctuate up & down within 2 lbs on a regular basis ... especially if I am in the middle of a stall. It could be Water, it could be your body adjusting, it could be the scale playing terrible, horrible tricks on you. ;) Seriously though, it happens to me all the time.

None of us lose at a constant or steady rate. We all experience stalls and slow downs. Almost everyone experiences a stall about three weeks after surgery.

Just follow your program. Focus on getting in all of your fluids and Protein, and stay off the scale.

Embrace the Stall

Says who?!?! Your body, your journey. Everyone is different. I have friends who were sleeved and my weight loss was completely different than theirs. I have a TON of stalls, one after another after another. My % lost is different than theirs was. But then again, my body is different than theirs, my lifestyle is different than theirs, and my expectations and effort is different than theirs.

Follow your program, get plenty of Water and Protein and exercise as much as you are able. Spend some time rediscovering yourself & the things you like to do. As @@Inner Surfer Girl said, stay off the scale a bit and shift your focus. It will all come in time.

I am 7 weeks out and only 35 pound down. Stay off the scale it is your WORST enemy. I do weekly weigh ins, and it is so much better.

Definitely try to not weigh yourself more than once a week for the first 5 months I weighted myself every Monday morning. Recently I started weighing myself more often and it's really just a roller coaster through the week. Enough to make me crazy when I went up overnight, in the end by the time Monday rolls around I'm usually showing a lose for the week (every once in a while I stayed 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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
