Well it happened



Recommended Posts

Four months out and I hit my first stall.

I was down 60lbs a month ago. Now it is 64. ( was 65 but gained a pound over my birthday weekend) I have been at the same weight for about 2 1/2 weeks. Not complaining as I knew this was bound to happen. Just stinks that it did. I will just keep on keeping on. This weight will come off. Guess my body just needed a rest.

I had my first stall at 9 weeks. It lasted 2 weeks. Now I'm losing a pound a day since. Very strange to me. I didn't lose it that quickly pre-stall.

Heh.. Sometimes the best thing to do is ignore it and it will go away. ;)

Consider yourself fortunate that you didn't hit a stall until then! Mine was at 3 weeks and lasted 2 weeks, talk about frustrating!

I increased my Fluid intake along with Protein and it finally budged to 3 pounds.

Now I have promised myself I am not going to weigh everyday.....hopefully it will last!

I weigh myself at the Dr's office about every 6 weeks...If you weigh yourself too much then it gets scary..Every day is just asking for disappointment.. I never weighed myself when I was really heavy and now I am doing it this way so that I don't get worried about all the little things ........

I feel so much better now and am working at the pace my body is dictating........As long as I follow the plan and remember that the sleeve is a tool..I know it will come off!!!!!

All the best!!

I just broke my stall doing the 5 day pouch test. Started it Sunday and was 192.5 ... yesterday evening i was 188.. and this morning i was 186. I was relieved and even tho the first 2 days are liquid, you see such an improvement that your immediately motivated!

I was thinking if no movement in the scale by the end of this week, I'll be giving that a try.

        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
