Gained 3 lbs from Sunday to monday. Took me so much to get o 161, and now i'm at 164. How is that possible? I realize I ate different than my day-to-day... But that was one time and i did not go crazy and eat crazy things i shouldnt... I was sick and needed real food....

Your weight can change from day to day. Mine has changed from 5 lbs from morning to evening!! I forget how many calories equal a pound of weight but it could be Water retention, or you did not have a bowel movement or both... I would not worry about it, just do a bit more exercise and really watch for a day or two or go back on to a liquid diet for a week.

I am back on the up and down stall. It has happened a few times for me already. I go up and down the same 3 to 4 pounds without going lower than my previous lower weight. yes it is frustrating and I am doing nothing different and even increasing exervise etc when this happens, but it still stays in a stall. once it was 3 weeks (was in my second month post op) another time a week. this time it has been almost 2 weeks. It seems to happen about once a month, not related to menstual cycle either. Just be patient and stay on track and eventually it will start coming off again. You are too early in the process for you not to continue to lose weight. Do not stress over it or get too depressed. It is not the fun part of the process but it will be over soon.

I really hate the stall! At first I hit the breaking point at 220 and now I've struggle between 218 and 217 for 3 weeks. I increased my exercise as much as I could. - which was non to 1/2 mile and tried to eat 1 extra meal of Protein. It worked!!! But for 2 pounds. Now I'm at 215. What happen to the 3 and 4 pounds a week drop??

Lovely that could be some good old muscle weight. Or one good pooh and it will be gone. Don't be a slave to the scale. Do you feel better? Are your clothes looser? Do you have more energy? the weight will come off. Don't get on that scale for a few days if you can help it and by the end of the week you may be pleasantly surprised.

        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
