So I have noticed that a lot of people lose weight

Consistantly example 1-2lbs every week. My body does its in clusters. It will drop 3-7lbs in a matter of 1 day and then I won't lose for about 1-3 weeks. Weird. Anyone else like this?

I don't lose that much at a time, I'll lose 1-2 lbs over a week (.2 here, .6 there) then up and down for 2 weeks before I lose more. I get really discouraged in those few weeks. Then boom, a little more comes off...

I am the same way..... only my waiting periods in between weight loss is about 3-4 weeks. I am losing in stalls.... but still losing! :)

Doesnt help that I weigh first thing EVERY morning... This last 50 that I need to lose are going to be a b***h! :blink:

Yes, I lost all my weight that way. I would not lose anything for weeks, and then I would drop 5 lbs in a week. Then I would not lose again for weeks. I had to make sure to stay on track. It's easy to think "I may as well eat that piece of chocolate because I am not losing anyway"

I lose about a lb a week. During the week it'll go up and down a lb then eventually done another lb. That's my pattern.

I thought I was the only one. I lose 10-15 pounds then nothing for 3 weeks. It is SO discouraging. I know it's my body just adjusting but I can't help but think if I keep losing weight at this rate I'll be at goal in no time. :0)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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