rowekins 1 Posted August 5, 2011 I've had one fill, and go for my second on August 10th (3 month check up). I'm really getting disappointed in myself. So many ppl post losing weight almost daily, then here I am staring at the same number every day. Has anyone else plataued this early? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cindy C 150 Posted August 5, 2011 It's not uncommon to plateau or even gain after you go back to solid foods. Hang in there. It'll start coming off again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suzahhn 19 Posted August 5, 2011 It happened to me to and I was worried but I go through waves. As long as the overall trend is going down, I'm not worried any more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jen120 23 Posted August 5, 2011 Congratulations! You've lost 41 pounds in 3 months! That is great progress. Remember, everyone's journey is unique. You cannot compare yourself to others, it will just drive you crazy. I know for me, I didnt lose for a couple of weeks. Come to find out, I wasn't eating enough. I was only eating about 800 calories a day. Once I increased to 1000-1200 I started losing again and have been losing consistently. Good Luck with your second fill. I am sure the scale will start to move again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beachy_Babs 5 Posted August 5, 2011 Good Luck with your fill!! I go in for my second fill on Monday the 8th! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reverie 49 Posted August 5, 2011 Weightloss isn't consistent nor linear. You won't lose weight on the scale every week, doesn't work that way. Maybe focus more on NSVs and measurements. Two weeks without a decrease on the scale is hardly a stall/plateau. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
becky101010 0 Posted August 5, 2011 You're definitely not alone.... I feel like it's been just about 2 weeks that I've stared at 230 point "something" on the scale... Just in the last 2 days I made sure to write down every single thing I was eating, focusing on Protein g and amount of Water... At my next appt I want to bring it so maybe the dr can let me know if there's anything I need to change. May be a helpful idea for you as well! Also- I count my g of Protein, not calories.... Which is best to focus on??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ro-Jae327 4 Posted August 5, 2011 Yes, I agree with Jen. I wasn't losing because I wasn't eating enough. Me too about 700-800 calories a day. Now I am eating 1000 cal a day and I have been able to lose 3-4lbs a week. Definitely recommend eating more. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roziecakes 20 Posted August 5, 2011 Yes, track all of that! It's true. It helps me also to just write down everything that I put in my mouth and to also keep track of how much Water I drink too. I've also been keeping an exercise log. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
