Am I Stalled Or Never Going To Lose The Weight



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone I just wanted to tell everyone what is going on and hopefully i can get some advise....i had my surgery on the 8th and i've lost only 11 lbs but ive been stalled at 11 lbs for like 4-5 days..what is going on??so I looked at what i'm doing and the only thing i can think of that may have caused the problem is cream of potato Soup that i've had several times..they said cream Soups were fine and i haven't liked the chicken or mushroom or the broths very much so tried the potato and when i looked today after not losing anymore it says that it has 15 g carbs and i'm just not sure if that is bad or not and if that caused me to not lose or if im doing good but in a stall..i've heard of 2nd week stalls but 1st week stalls???other that that im drinking my Protein, sugar free jell-o, pudding , light yogurt and thats pretty much all i eat every day...i'm so ready for the next stage...also i just started walking today so other than taking care of my babies and constantly being up walking around the house i havent had much exercise...I just wanted to break this down and see if anyone has any thoughts . I'm really hoping to start losing more..also my starting weight was 214 so my weight lose may be slower that some peoples....uggghhh i just don't know...

My life changed on the 5th and I feel almost the same way as you. I have a deal with myself that I wasn't going to weigh myself until I was a week into normal food (end of week 4). Your body has to adjust to what has happened to it and its not fair to you and your emotions while this process is going on.

Good luck

I was sleeved on the 6th and have lost 12lbs since surgery. I have also experienced a stall for the past 4-5 days despite walking an hour everyday for the last week! Am only on liquid diet and drinking my Protein Shakes so can't be what I eat .... so just hang in there I am sure we will see some scale movement soon!! I have decided I will only weigh myself weekly from now on .....

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
