UndercoverBariatricGal 167 Posted July 10, 2013 I feel like the last few pounds are going to be a chore I feel like giving up! But give up to what? Its not like I have much of a stomach to talk about and its not like I can really cheat to my own satisfaction. The cheat is limited as would be the satisfaction. I know stalls make us feel this way but I also feel like the scale just wont move anymore... I am annoyed with my own feelings right now.. I wish I would just reach goal.. I guess because the first 6 months were so simple to have it all stop/slow down now is discouraging.. I guess a part of me knew this day would come but Ugggg why not just let me finish then maintain the loss? I WONT GIVE UP!!!! I know it will come off even if it takes the rest of the year to do it!!! I WONT GIVE UP! 3 DanaL, slimagainsoon and MichiganChic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichiganChic 3,262 Posted July 10, 2013 You have done great! Just keep doing what you are doing, and it will start ot come off again. When did the weight stop coming off? I had about 6 good weeks in June where I was losing 3-4 pounds a week for reasons unknown, because I didn't do anything different. And now, for the last 2 weeks, no change. Again, I didn't do anything different, but my body is just going to do what it wants! I still have a long way to go, so I hope it picks back up! I was really hoping to be at or within 10 pounds of goal by the end of this calendar year. 3 Sadlers1999, rholt35 and UndercoverBariatricGal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was really hoping to be at or within 10 pounds of goal by the end of this calendar year. Maybe I'm just at that point and time and it has not stopped it has just slowed down so much and for the last month I been up and down up and down however I did change my diet some good some bad and some new foods. However I'm going back to what I was doing before the slow down and changes began. I hope its just my body rejecting those changes and excepts me going back to the old stuff i use to do. I also wish you well in reaching your goal I hope to be finished and up for corrective surgery by the end of the year.. So I understand what your talking about. 1 MichiganChic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadlers1999 169 Posted July 26, 2013 I am in a rut. Went on vacation and considering the circumstances (cross country trip with 4 kids in a car and no other driver), I think I did well. Came back and being gone 2 weeks, suddenly my summer seemed "over" and trying to get things done, etc, etc. In any case, the point is that I lost my good routine. I was really doing about 10K steps/day on my fitbit and now I am flip flopping....ONe day I only do half that amount and the next I do 15K, so I am still averaging 10K steps/day, BUT on days when I don't do 10K or more steps, I find myself depressed and eating more. Today is an over 10K step day, so I am doing okay, but I am getting frustrated...And, the ability to eat really is coming back. BTW, I am 5'3 1/2" tall and about 150lbs. My personal goal was 140, but the doctors tell me that I need to get to 130, so I am still 20 lbs away from their goal.... 1 UndercoverBariatricGal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.Cross 37 Posted July 26, 2013 I am hanging in there more inches than pounds coming off. I am about 30 to 40 lbs away from goal weight. I can't decide if I should be at 135 or 145. Doc said 145 for my height and frame. I weighed 127 to 135 before gaining all the weight. I maintained that weight from the time I was 15 to 30. Not sure where I will land ...just can't wait to hit shore! 2 Sadlers1999 and UndercoverBariatricGal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
