Monday Morning Weigh In



Recommended Posts

i am 3 1/2 months out and i weighed 210 this am. which i have been at now for 3 weeks. so i am so sick of these stalls that i keep having. wish i could just keep losing weight but i am afraid that my body is done losing. i eat hardly nothing and i still don't loose!!

hw 284, sw 266, cw 210. i wish that my body would make up it's mind. please help...

Have you tried increasing calories? Your body may need more calories Laura, don't give up, your body isn't done. I can't remember how many calories you are getting in, but can you try increasing by just 50-100 a day for a week, and see how your body reacts?

I'm sorry you keep stalling out, but don't give up on yourself.

I agree with Tiff......you're only at 3.5 months. That's really nothing in the big scheme of things. Everybody goes through a stall; it'll change. Sounds like you're holding onto fluids which should change soon. Watch your carbs and sodium intake.

Well, that includes 11 1/2 before surgery too, so it's really 30 since surgery. Which is great, I know... I've just been feeling down and draggy and mopey and whiney the last few days lol...I'll snap out of it! :laugh0:

I know what you mean, when it doesn't happen as fast as we think it should, we get depressed. My weight is coming off slllloooowwwww now, so I totally know how you feel. You're still in the honeymoon phase of the procedure, so expect that you will keep losing pretty good until about 6 mos. out when things slow down; that and the fact that the more you need to lose, the faster it comes off. My BMI is down to 24.1 or normal weight mode, that's why it's so slow for me. You will definitely get there so don't be dejected about it.

Stacy congrats! You are doing wonderful. I understand how you feel, I've been going through the same feelings of whiny-ness lol but one thing I remind myself is that I weight train a lot and am building a lot of muscle so that helps me not be too disappointed.

SW: 240

CW:198

I am only 5 weeks out and have lost 38 pounds but haven't seen the scale move all week. Is that unusual this early on?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
