14 Weeks Post Op - Multiple Stalls

  • Popular Post

So I am 14 weeks Post op, and things are going great. However, I have had several stalls, which get discouraging. I will go 2-3 weeks and not lose a pound, and then drop 5 lbs in one week! So weird how the body works. When I am feeling disappointed in the slow weight loss, I do side by side photo comparisons of before and after. Here is one that lifted my spirits today.

You will need them at times when the scale is not moving.

Talk to your doc about taking biotin. That should help with hair loss.
