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!!!

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...

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
