LessofApril 101 Posted January 7, 2014 Hi all just wondering about this I had surgery on 12.12 and felt like I was doing well. But I got my period and the scale hasn't moved! I'm really frustrated by this. I have a call into my doctor's office, but I'm wondering what you all think. Has this happened to anyone? Could I be doing something wrong? Looking forward to hearing what you all think. Thanks, April Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs.RRn 2,111 Posted January 7, 2014 During my TOM, I either don't lose or even gain a lb or two. It comes off right after. It's normal to retain a little. It's ok. Don't let it discourage you, just keep doing what you're supposed to do. 1 LessofApril reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seela 1,187 Posted January 7, 2014 At about 3 weeks or so your body kind of goes into shock and it needs time to catch up. The initial loss of pre and post op usually stops or slows significantly for a bit. Give it w few weeks... it usually comes back with a vengeance! Just part of the process. 1 LessofApril reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdmama911 224 Posted January 8, 2014 Im almost 120 days out, and down 66lbs. Since surgery. Im not the fastest loser, and haven't been able to exercise much due to some injury issues. However, I have plateaued a few times. It is VERY frustrating, but I start losing again every time. I still weigh myself daily, but I know that Im on the right track. Trust me, the scale will start marching down again for you, just give it time. Your body has to catch up to that loss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
