If it makes you feel better, what you're feeling is completely normal. Only now at over 3 years out I obsess about KEEPING it off :P

Totally normal and, imo, healthy.

Getting obsessed and staying obsessed is how you are going to lose the weight and keep it off. :)

I weigh myself once an week and it's much better for me as I was getting to an obsessive point a few months back. Like if I saw a scale I would have to step on it and analyze the results. Also expect stalls and during those times don't drive yourself crazy. During stalls are when I have my biggest loss of inches. Also for me it helped to really get in tune with my body and what I need. Find a good balance of food and exercise and listen to what your body needs. For example during my time of the month, I always stall for up to two weeks. At first I was frustrated but now that I saw the pattern I don't measure myself during that time. It saves me heartbreak. I usually will lose 4-5 pounds the week after and then 1-2 the rest of the time.

Hang in there! I am 6 months post-op today, and JUST came out of a 7 WEEK STALL! This will pass and you will watch that scale continue to go down with amazement. Stay the course, do your part in this journey. It gets discouraging along the way. Just remember there will be many many bumps in the road, but victory is oh so sweet! Make sure to keep up with your Vitamins, Water, Protein, diet and exercise. Everything will happen as it is supposed to. Just keep doing your part. Sending love and encouragement to you!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
