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!

        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
