How strange that we all are hitting this first stall at the same time!

Yeah, I wonder how long it's supposed to last.

Yea I was expecting it at 3 weeks not at the moment. Funny that a "stall" to me now post surgery is not losing 3 lbs a day. I haven't gained I'm just stopped. Sucks because I'm already kind of depressed about wanting to eat normal food (anything not from a blender) and watching the scale go down was my saving grace. Frustrating!!!

How much is everyone walking/exercising?

Walking 2-3 miles per day which I started a few days after surgery. The doctor said walking is it until 6 weeks post op.

I was sleeves on July 8. Weight was 222 current weight is 209. I have been like this for the last five days. I was also a bit discouraged seeing how little intake I have and how the scale does not move. I do regular everyday walking, some walks around the block in my house but overall very easy walking. I will go back to work tomorrow.

One thing that I keep in mind when the scale gives me no encouragement is that I have began a journey not a sprint.

I hope to soon see the movement of the scale once again:).

When the scale doesn't move for me, one thing that has kept me from being discouraged is measuring myself and seeing that im still getting smaller... Or I start trying on clothes that I have been saving for years and have not fit into, but now either fit, almost fit, or are too big.

Stalled too... But I switched scales so I am blaming the new scale, lol.

Returning to swimming laps tomorrow. Used to 1/2 mile in under 30 min, expect to barely get 20 laps in...

      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.
