I Need A May 1St Buddy! Im Feeling Depressed!

[D1NOnlySexyLady 70]

Actually we both have about the same amount to lose. And we have both done good so far. I know I may be depressed about the stall but I do know 32 lbs is 32 lbs And if it wasn't for my sleeve I would have struggled and started to put weight back on already. I just heat this stall. Ugh!!!

I completely understand! I don't think I'm in a stall yet cause every week I've lost, but I do know if I were to be exercising more I would have lost more. Which is why I can't beat myself up about it, cause I know it depends on me, how much weight I lose. Where are you from Brit? Hope you stay in contact

I feel the same way I am on a stall to. But o blame myself since I cheated and had soft foods and doctor wants me on full liquids. But I was feeling so light headed I couldn't take it anymore. But I don't eat much its just a little that goes down which is good and its one meal I do liquids the other time.

I was sleeved April 25th and u all need to become friends with me on myfitnesspal. Focus on your eating and exercise and not the pounds. I gave my scale away and I only check it maybe once a week when I visit my mom. Also, during my monthly.... there is no point in weighing until atleast 2 days after.

Awe hon u are being too hard on yourself. Look at the positive, u lost 32lbs already! That's awesome. I am May 1st and yes in the last week the weight loss has slowed down. So I think its a bit normal at this point. U need to get out and do things to make urself feel better about urself. Like it has been recommended go get a massage or something u like to do.

Also, try taking a walk. Don't worry about how long or how far or how fast. Just walk. We are here for u and are proud of u!

Does anyone know why there is a 3 week stall? Medically or otherwise?

I got sleeved right after you, May 4th, and I'm also in a stall. I have gained and lost the same pound for the last week. I keep reading about the dreaded 3 week stall and am assuming that's what I'm in..... but like you I am so discouraged.

I had to do the pre-op diet for 10 days and lost 10 pounds on the pre-op diet, and was happy with that. I had my surgery and when I got home (a whole week later) I hadn't lost anything, and I was very discouraged but chalked it up to fluids and swelling. After I got home I started losing quickly and the weight flew off for a week. Then it was like I hit a brick wall and haven't lost since.

I've been walking and started gently swimming 4 days ago. I know I'm not as active as I was pre-op, but still have pain on my left side so taking it easy. I was able to start mushies today. I needed to lose 87 pounds and have lost 24 so I have 63 to go.

Hang in there..... you're not in your stall alone...... looks like a few of us are there with you.

I'm in a stall as well but I have also introduced soft foods already (Sleeved May 1st). I'm on MFP ~ jmcbride, I also do YouTube videos

and I talked about my stall this week as well as my rendezvous with Cheetos!! So don't give up, stalls are apart of the journey. Have you taken your measurements? Though I don't see the weight dropping, I can tell a difference in the way my clothes fit.
