I feel for you Sylvie, I've done it several times myself. Hang in there, log your food, keep working for it - IT WILL HAPPEN!

It's frustrating but this tool is meant to help over the LONG haul and you've got to give it time.

Good luck on your weight loss journey.

You're fine. It's normal. Adjust your sights to the long haul...these little bumps are just bumps, and it's gonna be a long and difficult journey if every bump feels like a mountain.

Have you checked out www.fitday.com? It's free. You can track your weight, and notice what pattern your weight loss takes. Much better to just notice a pattern than stress over every hill and valley.

Please don't do this to yourself. You will lose weight if you are using the tool, the band....and following the eating suggestions, even 80% of the time. Breathe....you're fine.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
