IM STILL 325# IM GOING TO WITHDRAW MYSELF FROM THIS CHALLENGE. I HAVENT BEEN EATING WRONG FOODS OR OVER EATING I HAVE BEEN STEPPING UP MY WORK OUT BUT CANT LOSE A POUND FOR A MONTH NOW. THIS IS VERY DISCOURAGING AND JUST NEED TO FACE REALITY THAT THIS ISNT FOR ME ANYMORE. IM NOT GOING BACK TO OLD WAYS OR ANYTHING BUT IM JUST NOT GOING TO POST ON THIS SITE. YES AND THE JUDGERS WILL SAY IM HAVING A PITY PARTY AND MAYBE THATS TRUE BUT FOR NOW THATS OK IM THE ONLY ONE INVITED.

Understood and no judgement. It can be very frustrating to stall out for long periods. I stalled for over a month during my active weight loss period. I bet your body is just adjusting to your new lifestyle, and will allow weight loss again soon. We are all here for you when you need us! :778_heartbeat:

No judgement from me. I was in a 3 week stall most of Nov/Dec. I was very upset and frustrated so I totally get it. continue doing the right things and it will get better. Wishing you only the best. Take good care of you.

I'm stalling too [emoji30] I've been 299 since about Christmas! I'm just a little past 3 week post op. It's very frustrating and discouraging but I keep reminding myself that there no way I won't keep losing weight. I've had surgery, it'll come with time. I've just backed off with how often I weigh myself so I don't get too upset. Best of luck to everyone!

Dropped the pound and then another. I'm surely not going to make 230 by next week, but I'll try!

I had to hid the scale because I became obsessed with it (pre op) I didn't own one, I only weigh myself at the doctors office. Now I weigh myself every week (only for this challenge) but normally every other Wednesday.

Omg, I was so happy to wake up New Year’s Day and see 159 on that scale. There today as well. I won’t make 154 by next week. But to be in the 150s, guys. Huuuuuuuge!

sadly I’ve lost more than half my hair, even losing this slowly. I’ve never lost 10 lbs in a month and barely 5 most months. And taking Vitamins and Biotin. Still having the Hair loss. It’s still worth it.

’Happy new year and thanks for this challenge. Never in my life have I lost weight over the holidays. What?! So happy.

I know I've missed the last couple weigh ins. I've been holding steady at 196lbs.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
