Had RNY revision 8/23 and went from 408lbs to 344 in 2 weeks. Problem is, have not lost any since then. Getting discouraged. Tired of people asking how much you lost, and answering "nothin". What am I doing wrong?

Nothing. You are at the stall phase. If you recall the first time around, your body went through it. That's quite a bit of weight at one time and your body has to adjust. Keep following your doctor's orders. That is HUGE!!!!!! You have lost 63 pounds in two weeks and you're discouraged?????[emoji44][emoji848] Don't you think you should be celebrating the victory?????[emoji323][emoji322] Congratulations and keep going. You can do this. [emoji846][emoji1474]

How often do you weigh? Many people weigh daily and get discouraged when they don't see the scale moving. I would weigh weekly instead.

Those plateaus are so frustrating!!

hey dude

people at a heavier starting weight tend to loose a lot of weight at the beginning

of their journey, will slow down a little as time passes, but will do great

it's mind boggling to me that you or anyone can loose 64 lbs in 2 weeks

not sure about that - but..... ok, that's great!!!

continued good luck, health and happiness☺️

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
