I'm a scale-a-holic...I weigh every day. Last week I went up 2 lbs...I know it varies but it hasnt come back off.

My surgery was 3 weeks ago. I think I'm already stalled. For some reason, I thought maybe I would be one of the lucky ones that this didn't happen to...guess not!

I do get at least 60g of Protein, 64oz Fluid and walk at least 40 mins a day (2 miles). I am still on pureed, avg 400-500 cal per day. I'm exhausted.

I am going to try to not weigh again until my one month check up on 5/10.

This is so frustrating. I was in a 2 week stall prior to surgery...and niw again? I cried a lot yestetday. Ugh.

Calm down. I feel like the pot calling the kettle black, I am in the same boat .. 2.5 weeks out I stalled for over a week today is 4 weeks for me and I lost 5 pounds. Keep doing what your doing.. It's what I have to tell myself.. It will happen. I also was scale obsessed. I now only weigh on Wednesday, I call it Weighday :)

Don't get discouraged, I stalled 5 months post op for 3 months. I too am a scale-a-holic, just stick to your plan with diet and exercise and it WILL come off. We all lose in different ways and time... hang in there it will move !

I was a scale freak when I first had my surgery. Now, it comes out 5 times a month. On my anniversary date and on Fridays. I realized the more I obsessed over it the more stressed I got. The weight will come off and stalls are going to happen. I stall every month for 1-2 weeks sometimes 3 weeks at a time. Just remember just cause the scale isn't moving that the inches are not coming off. My best advice is to weigh AND measure yourself once a week.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
