Michelleforchange 5 Posted October 10, 2013 I have been stuck at 202 for a month. I just want to see that scale say 199. So frustrating! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nsquared 232 Posted October 10, 2013 This going to sound quaint, but as long as you are following your program, the scale while move in the right direction. That said, if you aren't already, drink as much Water as you can stand...I mean like, so much the sight of another clear liquid will make you scream or feel like you are drowning. Yes, that much. It is that important to the whole weight / fat loss process and get as much rest as you can. Follow your program and everything will be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michelleforchange 5 Posted October 10, 2013 Thanks for the response. I do need to be more strict on the diet and increase the Water. I think stress has a lot to do with it. I need to refocus! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LipstickLady 25,682 Posted October 10, 2013 Ugh. Horrible place to be stuck. It will come off but it sucks eggs waiting for that stupid 199.8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lorie269 392 Posted October 10, 2013 I am at 203 and while I haven't been stuck here (hope I didn't just jinx myself ) I can understand the frustration. Onderland is so close and yet can seem so far away. I have faith that we will both get there real soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michelleforchange 5 Posted October 10, 2013 Thanks ladies. I sure hope so. Together we can do it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Italiancurves 117 Posted October 12, 2013 Whenever I get, as you say "stuck". Imprefer to think of it as my new normal (which is lower than my previously higher normal). Which I know is just my body stopping to take a breath and rest. Weight loss is stress on our system. Our body wants to feel stabalized. However when I'm ready to push forward and resume weightloss I do something different. Lower caloric intake, increase exercise, Water, take a colonic cleanse tea... Something quite extreme. Like for instance... I'm still 20 days pre op and have been on 1200 cal diet. Hit a plateue stuck at 218 for a week. Have been on 800 cals for last two days... Now finally down to 216. To to www.resetmypouch.com. Helps jump start a weight loss stall. Recommended by many VSG veterans. Good luck ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeriouslyChange 319 Posted October 12, 2013 I was stalled at 203 for a bit as well. Hang in there, follow the plan, and you'll get past it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wcn1970 239 Posted October 12, 2013 I don't mind the stalls. I just look for the other changes, they are there. I am wearing a smaller pant now at 43 years old than I did in high school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
