M not losing weight this is so frustrating! I try to get in as much as possible obviously without going over! I don't know what to do! I could excersise more but the storms here have been all day and everyday these past couple days but even when I was getting out and walking I still didn't lose 1 lb I. Two weeks is all I lost. I understand everyone's different. But y me?? Ugh sorry needed to vent!

I totally understand I went 2 weeks with no loss then I started eating more and weight started coming off again. Don't worry!

By being on this site..one thing I have noticed is every single one of us has and will go through this. You are not alone in this. I couldn't agree more, it is very frustrating. However, it is part of the process. I am 17 weeks post-op and I can tell you on my journey, every couple of weeks I would experience this. When I went to my 3 month check up my doctor told me it could take the next six months to lose the remainder of the weight I want/need to lose. Remember this weight didn't come on over night so it isnt going to come off over night. Keep following your program, drink, eat, exercise and you'll break through this plateau!! Your doin great don't get frustrated now! Keep your chin up :)

Great advice!! I'm almost 10 weeks out- and I started tracking the weeks that I stop losing.. It's coinciding with my 'mid cycle'.. I even gained 2lbs this time.. But within a couple of days- I dropped 5lbs. So try to start charting your weeks- you may find a pattern there..

I'm 29 weeks out from my surgery and have hit my first plateo. It has lasted about a month. I finally dropped two pounds this morning. Total of 97 pounds. I only weigh in on Sunday mornings. Just hang on there.

Stay focused on following the protocol, get active even if you have to "walk" in your living room (Leslie Sansone has some excellent CD's that will show you how to do exactly that - you can order on Amazon), and stay away from the scales for a week, two would be even better. You know that stalls are a natural part of the weight loss process and although a lot of folks may not post about them, I suspect that just about everyone experiences them. Patience is not only a virtue, it's a necessity for us in the big losers club. You're gonna love the new you!

        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.

      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
