Why yes, I WOULD like some cheese with my WHINE!

[measureofme 175]

I'm just complaining. I know I shouldn't. I feel like a small child stamping my feet. I knew it would come sometime about now, but this sucks. I really shouldn't complain. It's not a total stall... but I have not weighed in for two weeks and when I did today, it says I've only dropped three pounds in the last two weeks. Now... I should be thrilled... never before have I lost 53lbs in seven weeks (two pre-op and four almost five since surgery)... and the scale went down, not UP. Right?

I just gotta put my big girl panties back on and suck it up. This happens. It's not meant to happen over night and I'm still healing and learning. Right? RIGHT!

Increase the Water and increase the Protein.< /p>

Avoid the cheese and WHINE... just go for the cheese.

Ugh I feel like a sap.

Thanks for listening to me VST peeps.

Laura I need to ask a non related question. I can't start my own threads! Any idea how to do this? My iPhone doesn't show an option and my computer doesn't either. Is it something I'm doing wrong!? Thanks. Laura

I know! See, I'm a whiner. (Big losses out the gate are about the ONLY good thing of having started at such a high weight, I just didn't expect to slow down so fast. Hoping it's temporary.)

I don't like whine with my cheese. I much prefer to eat my cheese in the Whaaaambulance!

P.S. I finally lost .2 of a pound this morning - after 4 days of nothing! SOMEBODY DIAL 911!!!!!!

I really have a hard time with my expectations too.

Some days I even feel like a failure! But once in a while I have a moment of clarity.. Like this morning, and think "I'm doing this and it's going to work"

We are doing this and it's going to work!!

I was sleeved 11/12/12 and am down a total of 83 pounds including 17 pounds on 10-day preop diet. I lost like 20 pounds per month and then from January to February, I lost like 12 pounds. I knew for a fact that my surgeon would be disappointed with my loss. I told him just that and he told me to basically shut up!!! He said I was doing just fine and from Feb to March, I lost another 11-12 pounds. My surgeon said "How long has it been since you lost 10 pounds in a month and didn't gain 10 pounds in a month?" So, you're fine!!! Quit that damned whining and get back to losin'!!!! ;-P

Your welcome,

Well, this is your place to whine! We've all been there, or I have at least! The stalls are crazy frustrating but it gives you an opportunity to change things up and see if something else works for you.

I food log using myfitnesspal and am regularly horrified about the percentage of my caloric intake that comes from fat. Almost all the fat comes from the half and half I put in my coffee and from cheese. I even got some of the lower fat mini baby bells to try and curb the fat intake some because I'm NOT giving up cream in my coffee!

So, feel free to whine! I'll listen and chime in too!
