Oh awesome! Thank you!!!!

After surgery I spent two days in the hospital. In those two days, I gained 12 pounds of fluids! I came home and started my clear liquids diet. I was losing 2-3 lbs a day. I realize some of that was fluid, but my total weight loss snice my last pre-op appointment is 25 lbs. I know that's a lot, but now I'm so frustrated. The scale hasn't budged in 4 days. I'm literally the exact same weight every day. One day, I even gained a pound! What's going on? I'm still barely eating. Only 2 tablespoons three times a day. I get tworse whole protein shakes in every day, which is 60 grams of protein. I sip water constantly. So what gives? I've heard to be patient, but it's hard when you feel hungry and adhere to all the guidelines & the weight loss just isn't there. Anyone else have this issue? side note: I lost 11 lbs before sugery, so I've only lost 14 since surgery.

I am only on liquids for 2 weeks. I am weighing daily until my first post op visit in 3 weeks. Everyone is different, but I was dropping weight regularly until 4 days ago. I get at least 60g of protein & 60ish oz of water daily. I've heard stalls are normal, but this early on, just seems strange.

I honestly forgot to track measurements & wish I would've before I lost 25lbs! I need to start. Clothes and yes, my rings, feel much bigger even though the scale isn't moving! Thanks for the encouragement!!!! <3

I wouldn't call it an "emotional obesession. I was told to record my weight daily until I see my surgeon again. I record ensuring else except exercise since all I'm allowed to do is go on walks.
