So I had surgery July 14th, 2017 and I was 228 lbs at my heaviest and a day before surgery with the cleanse I got down to 221 the next day (surgery day)....crazy. lol

Today I am 206...I've been 205-206 for like a week now...Per my doctor, I'm on a liquid diet for a whole month so I have another 11 days...I"m dying lol...I drink as much water and liquids as I can, get protein in and stuff but for some reason...this stall isn't breaking. Like hellooo I'm not eating, you figured I'd be losing weight right? lol

My question is --- did this happen to you all post surgery and what did you do to break a stall and when did you start seeing the scale move down again?

I miss food. I miss being able to eat with my boyfriend and family. I see everyone talking about their weight loss and just at a loss for why my progress came to a halting stop right now.

I get everyone's bodies are different and we are all at different places in our journey I just don't know when this will change.

I've been thinking to myself --- if i'm not even losing weight on this liquid diet, how will I lose weight when I actually start eating food?

Talk to me people! lol

Google "three week stall".

This is a question that gets posted about 2 to 3 times a day. So it's very common to be confused on this. But think about what just happened to your body. It's gone through a trauma. When you hit your arm, what happens? Swelling, bruising and it takes days for it to go down. Well, this time you have 80% of your stomach removed and each laproscopic incision is like a knife wound. Give yourself and your body a break. You need to give it time to heal and get better so you can start working hard at losing more.

Great way to put it. Well all need to heal.
