Miris 32 Posted December 18, 2012 My sugery date was 11/26 so just a little over 3 weeks out and its been a week and a half and I am losing I actually gain a pound then lose it... Its so frustrating I am not seeing any movement, isn't too soon to be at a stand still. Im doing mostly liquids and introducing some soft foods daily little by little. I have at least 60g o Protein each day as a bare minimum and on good days Im doing about 80g. I am walking everyday 1 mile in 30 minutes which is sometimes hard but I push myself and I sweat and my heart rate goes up. What am I doing wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trust me this will pass and you will start losing. Everyone is different so be patient with your new body. 3 Miris, kristy3k and juditha reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmarie317 24 Posted December 18, 2012 You don't need to weigh yourself everyday either if you have been. Your body is confused right now about why you have bee eating practically nothing! I've learned to take it one day at a time. Be happy that you made this decision and that your on your way to a happier healthier you!! 1 Miris reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just a bit discouraging <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> In a couple months you will read this same post from a new post opter and will chuckle to yourself. Trust me we have all been there and we have all come out the other side! Don't get discouraged you did not put the weight on in a month and it will take your body time to adjust. You will have many stalls during this process, but they are only temporary and I have really noticed that when I stall on the scales I am still losing inches. Keep your chin up! 1 kristy3k reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kisersassy 369 Posted December 19, 2012 I am with you feeling it is coming off slowly. its hard when I went in my surgeon said I would lose 100 pounds in 4 months and I just don't think that's possible. I wish he wouldn't have said that to me. I am losing like 2 pounds a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
