Thank You Lord, I just need some energy n hopefully doc will start me on soft foods Monday:)

Honey, no worries. Ur doing amazing n its showing:). U have 5 months to reach your 100# loss in 6 mths, don't stress, cuz it causes weight gain. Just relax n let whatever happens happen. Remember its been many years since our bodies showed a loss such as is, so b patient and ur doing gr8, congrats!!! Now, when I'm impatient, u have to tell me the same, we are human, lol;)

Puttering along...

12 pounds in 18 days post op. With my starting weight I was hoping for a bit more this month.
I was blessed in being able to get all my Protein and Water in, and even some veggies and my soft diet from day 10. I'm on Regular foods now, doing great. I wonder if that's part of why the scale has slowed, but I suppose that's a good thing, though I am impatient!
Only other things I can do is add workouts to the mix to help speed things along. I began that yesterday.
Good luck and congrats everyone:)
So that's 16% excess weight lost the first month, when I look at it that way it sounds good...lol. I was just hoping for 100lbs the first six months...we shall see.

Deez, your post literally brought tears to my eyes! God bless you and your amazing heart! You are a sweetheart, and we love you!
Rest well tonight!

Welcome to the stall Sandi....come in and join us...you're among good company! I was sleeved 4 weeks ago today, and today is day 8 of my stall. I feel thankful that I knew ahead of time that this would happen or I would have been really, really upset and frustrated. This too shall pass, and the we'll be right back at the losing!

Hi there I would love to participate I sent you a PM...

You look great. But I'm not confident enough to post a pic..lol At least not yet. But you definitely inspire me. You can see the difference....it's a big one too.

Welcome. I was sleeved on the 18th and this thread has been full of information, support, and words of encouragement. All two hundred pages are worth the read.

I am a 30th sleever too! I know what you mean but I have found this thread to be the most helpful to me because these people are experiencing it at the same pace we are instead of remembering from years back... Good luck!

Amazing pics MsCognac....well done!

I actually giggled and felt guilty when I saw that weight pop up. Reweighed twice more to make sure it was real.
So of course I am now waiting for the stall to come.

I'm officially in the middle of a very frustrating stall. However, to date, I've lost 20lbs.
Surgery weight: 251.3
Current weight: 231.2
Frustrated - I've showed 2 gains on the scale this week, but I'm holding out for next week, and staying positive, dammit.
