4 months post op

[liiizzz1 0]

😣I just hit my 4 month post op on March 14th and have lost 95 pounds. I’ve been stuck at 207 for a week & a half. I’m doing my best at everything but I got used to the scale moving every week & I feel defeated. Anybody else feel/felt this type of way??

if you've been sticking to your program, then it's just a stall. Most of us experience several of those along the way - think of it as your body stopping to recalibrate once in awhile. Just stick to your plan and stay off the scale - maybe just weigh yourself once a week until the stall breaks. And it WILL break. It usually takes 1-3 weeks, but occasionally they'll go longer. But it will break for sure as long as you're sticking to your plan.

My first stall hit at 2 weeks post op and lasted about a month. Stalls are a normal part of the process. If the scale is making you crazy, stay off of it. Follow the plan. Trust the process. You'll be fine.

The pattern that my body seems to have settled into is, I lose about 3 pounds. Stall for a couple of weeks. Gain back 2 pounds. And then stall for a week. And then it starts all over again. I'm losing on average of about a pound a week. So the scale is going down, but not without going up first.

Your body is going to do what your body is going to do. If you're eating in a calorie deficit, you're going to lose weight.
