KevinsBabyGirl85 364 Posted May 19, 2012 Not a good week. Probably because I'm on a full diet now. Here goes:Last week 264 Today 5/18/12 267 Original weight 297 I'm a little disappointed but better luck next week. Don't get discouraged! You could be not getting enough Water now that you've up your diet or it could be just your body adjusting! You'll do great I just know you will!!!

It super discouraging :-( I have heard that the less you weigh on surgery day the slower it comes off! Don't get discouraged I've been at 180 for well over a month now and I've gone up to 190 and back down to 180 over that time frame! We can all do it!!!

KevinsBabyGirl85 364 Posted May 19, 2012 So I weighed myself today since I didn't weigh in yesterday because I forgot!! I just knew not to do it but I was so hoping I'd loose this week! I think I did great considering I was out of town and not on my diet like I do at home I had no Protein for 3 days while I was out of town and when I got back aunt flow decided to rear her ugly face LOL! Last week 05/11: 180.2 This week 05/18: 180.6 So I gained .4!! Not so bad just wish it was a loss not a gain! Oh well there's always next week!!

LadyLocutus 41 Posted May 19, 2012 I think I need a bit of a pep talk here. I did my weigh in on Monday and I was 315 which is what I was 2 weeks ago. I'm certain I am getting my Protein in but anyone feeling stuck lately? I'm 27 days post op and down 17 pounds since surgery. Onyx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sunflwr76 45 Posted May 19, 2012 I had the same experience you are going through. I lost 18 lbs within the first 2 weeks of surgery but then plateau for about a week or two- then dropped again. I think this is quite common. I'm experiencing it again at -35lbs, I've have budged in about a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure you r getting all of your fluids in....your body is adjusting to your new metabolism. Try not to get discouraged and hang in there...you will be okay: ) Sent from my Nexus S 4G using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk Thank you, from the bottom of my heart! I really needed that encouragement. I'm so jealous of everyone else who has lost 20+ pounds while at the same time, I've lost 9! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
