So, last week I was 202 and today is the big weight in tadaaaa I'm 202????WHAAAT? I felt bad when scale said that. I have never lost nothing at all in a week. Sometimes I loose less than 3 pounds which is my normal loss but not none at all? Plus my birthday is Friday 31 and I promised my self this will be the last year I tell my self I will be less than 200 on my birthday. I feel mad like what the heck I should be down at least a pound! I think maybe because I lifted weights on Monday This happened. Should I do cardio only just so I make my goal? Go on a liquid diet? I had not gone #2 so I I took milk of magnesium yesterday and went this morning but still 202? very upsetting I thought today would be the day I had my camera ready to take a pic of 199 on the scale! I guess I'll wait till Friday and weight again. MAN I'm ANOYED...

Thank you I just really was shocked I had the surgery 5 months ago and every week I lost .this is the first time I lose a single pound. Im very happy with the weightloss and love the way I look now Just was really excited and expecting to be below 200 for the first time in 14 years and didn't expect not to lose at all. It will fall off I know just venting theres no one else that will understand other than you sleevers out there :)

Stalls happen. If you haven't had one in 5 months, consider yourself lucky.

17 pounds a month is amazing!! Your body is probably just recalibrating. You can still lose inches/gain muscle without the weight changing. It will keep going. If this is your first stall you are incredibly lucky. I stalled at 3 weeks post surgery but it eventually caught back up.

Amen to Celebrate the fact that you've not had any stalls, you're doing awesome!! From the 6th month on, I've lost 8 lbs total in 3 months, EIGHT, not much at all, and I'm in a gym 5 days a week 50 min cardio, adding 3 days a week 20 min of weight training. I think our bodies just know when to let go of the weight and it's not when we want it but when it's meant to happen. Frustrating for sure, but 'this too shall pass' as the saying goes. Again, you're doing amazing!!

Congrats on loosing 86 pounds! You are very lucky to not have had any stalls until now. I will be 4 months this week and month 3 only had lost 6 pounds for the entire month. The stall will break - I lost so far this month 11 pounds with a week to go. My Dr told me as long as I average ten (10) pounds a month, I am fine. Continue to follow your eating and exercise plan!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
