Discouraged

[krzy4vt 109]

I'm 9wks post op and down 32lbs but the scale hasn't moved in a week. I have 1.5cc in my band but I'm discouraged that I'm failing.

A week is no time at all, honestly. Plateaus happen and they can last weeks. I've had one that lasted 6 weeks before. I know people who've had them last months.

Just stay within your daily calories, stick to a cup or less of food per meal, exercise, and the weight will come off.

Best wishes.

First things first...32 lbs in 9 weeks? That's incredible! Second, you're not failing. It's probably just time for a band adjustment.

You are doing great... I had a plateau that lasted 3 weeks. Just keep doi g what you are supposed to be doing...track calories, measure portions, drink lots of Water and see your dr regularly and the weight will come off.

Don't forget that SO MANY things affect out scales. Sore muscles from an intense workout, that time of the month, not having a BM,

Don't get discouraged, you are doing things right if you've lost 32 in 9 weeks...could you have boasted that on any previous diet?...stay the course it will come off.

That is over 3 lbs a week that would be 150 lbs in a year.
