One weeks out, off meds, 16 lbs lighter, blood pressure:120/71..,

Even though I was mentally prepared for this stall, it doesn't make handling it any easier Keeping the faith that it will break

One week tomorrow and 15lbs down!!

Made it to the gym today, walked three miles...slowly. It is a beginning. I have been in a stall for a few weeks but feel good. Would like to move forward but I will need to learn to eat more protein and very little carbs. I need to stay away from anything too sweet because it yells my name when I remind myself how much I love sweets. Five weeks out and getting energy back, lost a size or so. Sometimes I feel like I am not going to lose weight any more, I guess it is just my brain wondering...

It's so amazing to sit back and watch how we react to stalls in our journey and to become so addicted to everyone here! It's such a beautiful day.....

Week 13 of my vertical sleeve post-opt. I now weight 269.2lbs that is 68lbs lost and 33 inch off my entire body. Only 109lbs to get to goal YEAH!!!!!!!!

Lost 57 lbs. so far! 6 weeks out of surgery!

Just curious how many calories we should be taking in the second week of surgery or should we just be worried about protein count?

First Day of 2 Week liquid diet - any words of encouragement?

Holy cow ! I'm TIRED. just got off after 14 hours, but atleast now I'm off for a week... Other than those pesky 8 hrs I have to work on Bmt on Friday ;(.

Mmm'kay!! I'm not sure if everyone here knows this but I've recently been tested quite a bit. Things have been slowly but surely calming down in my life, and GOD willing the trend will continue. :-) I'm feeling really good physically AND emotionally - and I'm ready to get my mind back in the game. This coming week I will get back on track with excellent eating and getting all my workouts in. Next week starts... INSANITY!!! WHOOTT!!!...

I completely understand your frustration. I am almost 6 mos post op, I've lost 67lbs so far. The last six to seven weeks I have not been able to lose anything. I keep telling myself that its my system trying to play catch up, but I do worry sometimes that this is it.

Finally after two weeks of not losing and going up 3 pounds, and staying there for 1 weeks my freaking scale went down four pounds so yay!!! plus officially size 14.. hope not to long cant wait to be a 12 again!

I'm almost 2 weeks post-op, and despite having trouble getting rid of all my gas( now all gone) I'm doing fantastic! Have lost a total of 23 lbs (including pre-op diet) so far. How great is that!!

I lost 7 lbs in one week! Started eating half portions and stopping eating late at night. What a difference. Gearing up for surgery. Less than 30 days away!!!!

Celebrating my 30 lbs lost in almost 7 weeks. Down to177lbs.

I lost 4 pounds this week. Weighing in at 240.4!! Woot!

So much to do today..karate, rollerskating with my three boys, dinner, meeting some awesome people later...such a great day!

I have officially 25 lbs to go For now I am enjoying a lot to exercise 6 times a week Love it!!

week 4: only down 2.8lbs--is that considered a stall, or no because the scale did move?

In the last week, I've kind lost my motivation. Work is so tiring and I'm so behind on things. I'm really concerned about this gall bladder issue because I don't want it removed. And, I haven't been eating or exercising properly. I've gained two pounds. I know it's not alot, but I think it portrays my current emotions.

3 week surgaversary - and 2.5 pounds from twoterville!

Crazy thing... Ok.. this week is my visit form TOM and I have lost 3lbs. This has never happened before.
