  • You are likely losing inches even if the scale isn't moving which was a big thing for me. There were periods when the scale didn't move for weeks but I went down a whole size or two. If you stick with

Weight loss slowed after going onto solids. Now coming off slowly. I am eating 60-90 G protein, 20 or less of sugar. Can only get in 800 to 1000 calories. I was sleeved on 7/10/17 and am only down 23 pounds. Most of it came off in the first couple weeks.

I knew that it was going to be hard but this is ridiculous

Swelling! water weight! PLUS you had your period?! It happens. Don't stress out. If you're doing everything right, it should settle~

If you stick with it and follow your plan it will happen. Make sure you are getting as close to your protein goal as possible and really hit the fluids.

I have noticed the same thing.
The scale isn't budging but my body looks different. My shirts look too big now and my pants are literally falling off. I have to constantly pull them up at work. I fear the day I am not quick enough while walking to my desk and I end up standing there in my drawers.
